Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 106 - 95: Gifting the ’Green Master’ Blade, the Method to Breakthrough

Upon hearing Daoge's words, Ji Jingqiu knew he hadn't misunderstood.

The attitude of the Federation's upper echelons was to permit any means necessary to obtain the breakthrough technique from Senior Zhuang, rather than favoring any particular power.

Xinzhai Dojo, Sun and Moon Dojo, and other forces he was unaware of had already entered the game.

If everyone else could, then why was he not allowed to take part?

The answer was glaringly obvious—it was because Star Group, the power behind him, was not yet qualified to share in the spoils!

"Daoge, thank you!" Ji Jingqiu said emphatically.

Leng Dao shook his head:

"To me, this matter is insignificant; it's merely about conveying a message to those people. But I hope you can understand something from this—

The Federation is too vast today, and the voice of one person is too weak. You must bind yourself to certain people, whether you become their core or their reliance. You need to unite a certain part of the populace to amplify your influence, your voice."

Ji Jingqiu asked, "Like gaining a solid footing in Star Group?"

Leng Dao nodded, then shook his head:

"Your connection with Star Group is too fragile, unless Lou Qinglan can truly take charge. What you should consider primarily is to quickly establish your own reputation.

In three months, there will be a practical evaluation assessment, and you should strive to catch this opportunity."

Ji Jingqiu nodded solemnly.

"I've come for another matter as well." Leng Dao removed a long wooden case from his back and handed it to Ji Jingqiu, "Open it and take a look."

Ji Jingqiu had been curious about what Daoge was carrying in the wooden case.

Upon opening the case, a long sword lay quietly within a wooden sheath.

"I heard you intend to learn the sword in the future, so I went home and found this one for you."

"This sword is named 'Green Master'. It's about one meter twenty in length, thin as a cicada wing, and exceedingly sharp. The scabbard is made to order."

"Green Master?"

Ji Jingqiu muttered. He grasped the hilt, drawing the sword from its sheath, and in a flash, he saw a bright silver radiance swirling around the room, accompanied by a high, dragon-like cry of the sword.

"I really like this sword," said Ji Jingqiu, his eyes gleaming, "Thank you, Daoge!"

"No need to thank me. Tiangong Heavy Workshop is essentially like an armory," Leng Dao smiled, "Given your talent, I don't think you will disgrace this sword."

Ji Jingqiu gently stroked the sword, feeling a chill seep into his fingertips from the blade's edge, yet it wasn't a harsh coldness, as if the sword itself possessed a spirit.

The Sword Nourishment Skill taught to him by Master Luo finally had a place to be applied.

Leng Dao's expression grew more solemn, "Qiu, I need to discuss something with you. Do you remember my niece?"

"Of course." Ji Jingqiu became serious.

Leng Dao's voice lowered, "On her first birthday when she chose the part that represents 'survival', my sister and her husband still had differing opinions... I'd like to hear your thoughts again."

This reminded Ji Jingqiu of his grandfather's words from before.

After a moment of silence, he sent a prescription through his terminal to Leng Dao.

"This is a recipe left by my parents. Its advantages and disadvantages are..."

He explained the efficacy of this prescription and finally whispered, "Though it will cause the pain to accumulate, at least it can confirm the onset time within a certain range."

Leng Dao was deeply moved, having anticipated this, but still couldn't suppress his shock when the prescription appeared before him.

To date, no one had made progress or breakthroughs in the research on Evil Poison Disease.

This prescription couldn't solve the problem fundamentally, but it could address the most terrifying aspect of Evil Poison Disease: the possibility of an onset at any moment, plunging into hell.

The unpredictability of the onset was the most despairing, for the patient could plunge into hell at any time!

"Qiu!"

Even with Leng Dao's composure, he clasped Ji Jingqiu's wrist excitedly, not knowing how to express his gratitude.

Yet, Ji Jingqiu poured cold water over it, speaking softly, "Don't underestimate the accumulation of pain…after enduring for six years, I almost couldn't hold on."

Leng Dao calmed down and nodded firmly.

After further conversation, Leng Dao mentioned that Zhuang Butong was his senior by one cohort. He had been to Zhuang Butong's practice room back then, and at that time, Zhuang Butong wasn't facing the severe conditions he was now.

Suddenly, Ji Jingqiu laughed, "Daoge, you should hurry back to your niece and not hover around here distracted with me. I also need to study the Secret Technique that Senior Zhuang passed on to me."

Leng Dao rarely showed an embarrassed expression but stood up abruptly upon being exposed, saying solemnly, "Qiu, about the prescription..."

Ji Jingqiu interrupted, "Daoge, our relationship surely needs no such words, and besides, you've already helped me a lot. Today, you even brought me a fine sword!"

Leng Dao suddenly smiled, "True, no need for thanks between us. I'll take my leave first."

"Mm."

After seeing off Daoge,

Ji Jingqiu returned to the independent training room.

He reviewed the events of the past few days and finally set a short-term goal—

He would try his best to assist Senior Zhuang in breaking through the Sixth Limit in one week.

To achieve this, he had to thoroughly study the Secret Technique left to him by Senior Zhuang.

The root of the Secret Technique came from the Ten Thousand Ancient Blade but integrated parts related to Heart Electricity, requiring his time for study.

Soon, Ji Jingqiu placed the Green Master across his knees and closed his eyes in meditation.

Returning to the Pure Land World, Ji Jingqiu sat cross-legged under the Bodhi Tree.

Above him, the Bodhi tree swayed its leaves, casting a cleansing light, making Ji Jingqiu's consciousness clear and bright; he rubbed the striving Fatty Hu and played with him for a while.

In these days, of the previous four Ten Thousand Ancient Blades, one had already been refinished to the progress of the fifth one, and Fatty Hu had played no small part in this success.

After the play,

He sat under the Bodhi Tree, comprehending Senior Zhuang's Secret Technique, trying to unravel it and restore its original form.
