Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant - Chapter 532

Chapter 532: Chapter 11 Solution Method_4

Yao Wudi confessed candidly.

Upon hearing Yao Wudi’s words, Shen Ying appeared somewhat stunned:

“Just this one?”

“A notification would have been enough, Master. You did not need to come yourself.”

Shen Ying responded immediately, “Wait a moment, Brother. I will be right back.”

Having said that, he descended straight down.

Seeing Shen Ying so prompt, Yao Wudi heaves a sigh of relief.

If after all his efforts, he couldn’t get even one cultivation method, it would be quite an embarrassment.

Of course, even as it stands, he was a tad too embarrassed to speak to Wang Ba.

After all, he had made such confident guarantees before, yet they refused to do him this favor. Although they didn’t outright reject him, the result was the same.

Wang Ba, however, didn’t think too much of it.

He was pleasantly surprised that Yao Wudi helped him to get a cultivation method.

This had saved him hundreds of years.

Before long, Shen Ying flew back up, handing a jade slip to Yao Wudi.

“I am ashamed of myself. Although I am the master of the peak, my comprehension of the Cloud-Water True Vacuum Technique is not thorough yet. The knowledge in this jade slip pales in comparison to that in the book collection. Brother, it would be best if you could go and borrow another copy when you have the opportunity.”

“No matter… this is enough!”

Yao Wudi scanned the jade slip with his spiritual sense and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Whether his comprehension was thorough didn’t matter. He hadn’t studied it, he just wasn’t qualified to teach it.

With this jade slip, he could fully teach Wang Ba all of his understanding of the Cloud-Water True Vacuum Technique.

Hence, Shen Ying took out a piece of paper covered in strange inscriptions and handed it to Wang Ba, asking him to sign it.

“Please sign it. This is for recording purposes. Let the sect know you have received the Cloud-Water True Vacuum Technique.”

Yao Wudi’s gaze swept over the paper, and then he assuredly nodded at Wang Ba.

Wang Ba, under the master’s order, immediately used his mana to inscribe his name on the paper with his mana as ink.

The inscription on the paper instantly congealed into a peculiar incantation and was then enveloped into Shen Ying’s sleeve.

Yao Wudi and Shen Ying chatted leisurely after their reunion.

When Shen Ying learned that the other masters had not given any cultivation methods to Yao Wudi, he shook his head:

“These Fellow Brothers sure are reluctant.”

“However, Brother, you cannot delay your protégé. It’s best to redeem the rest of the four cultivation methods as soon as possible…”

Yao Wudi became silent when he heard Shen Ying’s words.

He initially thought that with his position within the sect, a few cultivation methods would be as easy as pie. But after years of separation, he was surprised to find that many things were not as he had expected.

All these may have something to do with his past carelessness toward most of his peers, or his failing to ascend to immortality owing to his ticking lifespan, which led to negative opinions from many high ranking sect members…

The Five Elements Cultivation Method was just the beginning. If he wanted his disciple Wang Ba to truly inherit his legacy, the massive resources needed for initial cultivation and other cultivation methods would be huge hurdles.

Unlike cultivators who have a skill to rely on, his choices for obtaining a large amount of merit and resources are limited.

“Recently, the defense line of the Longevity Sect in the West Sea Country seems to have suffered some losses…”

Shen Ying suddenly mentioned this.

Yao Wudi understood his meaning instantly, but did not say much.

He gave out a soft sigh internally.

He had initially hoped to recruit a disciple with a skill, so as to worry less and benefit from it, but he didn’t expect the problem to come from his side.

However, having become a teacher, he couldn’t quit halfway.

After chatting for a while, Yao Wudi bade Shen Ying farewell, returned to Wanfa Peak with Wang Ba.

“You just focus on the Dharmas into One cultivation for now. It’s hard to get started, and given your current cultivation base, it will take at least four to five years. First, convert all your mana into Mother Qi of Dharmas, and the issue regarding the cultivation method, I will handle it.”

Yao Wudi instructed Wang Ba.

Wang Ba hesitated for a moment but still said to Yao Wudi, “Master, you shouldn’t push yourself too hard. Make your own cultivation your priority.”

Yao Wudi heard Wang Ba’s words and was momentarily taken aback, but soon revealed a smile.

“You little…”

“Don’t worry, it’s just a few cultivation methods!”

After uttering these words, he vanished from Wang Ba’s sight.

Wang Ba tilted his head to look at the distant night sky, only catching sight of a few isolated stars.

Despite the day’s hardships, he didn’t feel any defeat.

To him, a difficulty that allowed him to see hope was not a difficulty at all.

The current situation was so much better compared to when he kept chickens in the East Saint Sect and when he was controlled by the Spirit Sending Sign in the Tianmen Cult.

Unlike Yao Wudi, his heart was extraordinarily calm.

At this moment, Bu Chan, who sensed the commotion, came out from inside the house. Seeing Wang Ba standing alone under the night sky, she slowly walked over to him.

“Senior Brother, where is Master?”

“I don’t know… Ah, by the way, I have something to show you.”

Remembering something, Wang Ba opened his hand and presented it to Bu Chan.

Bu Chan glanced curiously at the object in Wang Ba’s hand, initially puzzled, but then her eyes revealed a surprise:

“Is this… a ‘Nine-colored Gourd Seed’?”

“You recognize it?”

Wang Ba was somewhat surprised.

“I don’t, but it was mentioned in the cultivation method I practice. It’s a Class IV Spirit Plant.”

Bu Chan explained.

Wang Ba exclaimed in surprise, “Your cultivation method is impressive, even including Class IV Spirit Plants…”

“Not really.”

Bu Chan shook her head and said, “The ‘Nine-colored Gourd Seed’ is mentioned because it’s very unique. It is said to embody a miniature world once it matures, but in reality, almost no one has seen it mature because it takes at least tens of thousands of years.”

“Tens of thousands of years?!”

Wang Ba was instantly dumbfounded.

“Correct, tens of thousands of years. Who, in this world, can live that long?”

Bu Chan said with a sigh, “So it actually has no precise classification. Strictly speaking, it can be called Class V, even Class VI, but its maturity takes too long, leading to its repeatedly reduced classification… Although this seed is rare, nobody considers it as a treasure but more of an unique collection.”

“Where did you get this, Senior Brother?”

Hearing these words, Wang Ba, who originally wanted to present a treasure, was rendered speechless. He thought it was an extraordinary treasure.

However, he insisted Bu Chan to sow it.

While others may not live long enough, he may not necessarily be the same. There’s no harm for him to sow it.

After a thought, he pulled out the copper coin that Shen Ying had given him earlier and placed it in Bu Chan’s hand.

“This is…”

“Just keep it and remember to always immerse it in your soul.”

Wang Ba said nonchalantly.

Seeing Wang Ba not placing much importance on it, Bu Chan accepted it as a trinket and put it away.

Under the desolate starry sky, the two exchanged pleasantries and with Bu Chan’s insistence, Wang Ba returned to his room to start his cultivation.

The peace they enjoy now is hard-fought. Bu Chan and Wang Ba, as people who have struggled in the past, both naturally have a sense of insecurity. They always subconsciously push themselves to keep trying and moving forward.

All things are illusion; only cultivation is true and tangible.

Returning to the house that connects to the spiritual lineage…

Wang Ba sat on a futon, recalling every detail of All Law One Meaning in his mind, as well as the words Yao Wudi had said before.

“It is difficult to get started?”

[Lifespan -7.5 years!]

In the blink of an eye, in his Dantian, a tiny colorless aura quietly condensed.
