Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples-Chapter 374 - 203: Obtaining Spiritual Objects, Master and Disciple Reunited!
"This disciple from the Mao Family is really straightforward..."
Chen Ye rubbed his face and murmured to himself,
"Chen Ye, oh Chen Ye, are you really going to become a freeloader? It’s one thing to let the young girl cook every day, but when things arise, you rely on the young girl’s face and have Sister Qingzhu handling everything..." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
As expected of him!
Back then, he said he’d cling to the big shot’s thigh, and now he has, hasn’t he?
It’s just that...
When the day finally came to cling to a big shot, Chen Ye found it hard to be complacent.
Never mind, in the end, he didn’t live off his master disciple, which is good.
...
The following ten days, Luoli Courtyard fell into complete silence.
In the Quiet Chamber, Chen Ye sat cross-legged, face pale, large beads of sweat continuously rolling down his temples.
He was forcibly circulating the Evergreen Technique within his Dantian.
The Locking Spirit Nail was meant to control him.
If he entered the Grotto Heaven still bound by the Locking Spirit Nail, it would be equivalent to handing his life over to others!
As Chen Ye mobilized his Spiritual Power, it felt as if countless red-hot steel needles were madly stirring within his Qi Sea!
He gritted his teeth and continued to try slowly.
In the midst of intense pain, his muscles twitched uncontrollably, and a slightly metallic taste of blood filled his mouth.
[Evergreen Technique Proficiency: 85/6400]
Indeed...
A surge of wild joy rose in Chen Ye’s heart!
Even though his Dantian was restricted, causing the Cultivation Technique to circulate with extreme difficulty, every movement accompanied by heart-wrenching pain,
the proficiency interface was incomparably miraculous; any attempt could increase proficiency!
"Then, the practice of the Withering Glory Mysterious Light Sutra later should also be able to increase proficiency!"
Chen Ye’s heart settled.
As long as there is the slightest possibility, there is a chance for a desperate comeback!
Chen Ye steeled his resolve and continued to repeat that tedious and painful cultivation.
It wasn’t until the afternoon of the tenth day that Bu Feifan’s voice pulled him out of the almost masochistic cultivation.
"Taoist Friend Chen, Taoist Friend Mao... has arrived."
Chen Ye slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air tinged with blood.
Mao Songli walked straight into the Quiet Chamber; upon seeing Chen Ye’s pale face, she raised an eyebrow but didn’t ask much.
She placed a Storage Bag on the stone table and said in a flat tone,
"Sister Qingzhu asked me to bring this for you. I’ve prepared two items. I have important matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first."
Chen Ye’s mouth felt faintly dry. He hadn’t expected that in ten days, Mao Qingzhu had prepared two Foundation Establishment spiritual objects for him.
He watched Mao Songli leave, then picked up the Storage Bag.
Inside the not-so-large space lay two items of pure Spiritual Qi and a Jade Scroll.
One was a piece of dry yellow wood, no more than a foot long, a Second Tier Wood Series Spiritual Object, Mystic Wood.
The other was a fist-sized piece, entirely dark golden, a Second Tier Gold Series Spiritual Object, Phoenix Feather Essence.
Chen Ye took out the two spiritual objects and picked up the Jade Scroll.
Infusing it with Spiritual Power, Mao Qingzhu’s gentle voice echoed in his mind:
"Brother Ye, it’s like meeting you through words. My cousin is impulsive by nature; if she has offended you in her words, please don’t hold it against her. I’ve found the Wood and Gold Series objects you need, and I’ll do my best to find the remaining three items for you."
"Also, I have good news. That girl Qing Jun made a stunning appearance at the Xu Family’s Dragon Gate Association and won the championship..."
"Lastly, I’ve prepared a surprise for you to relieve some of your worries. Hmm... it will arrive in a few days."
"Surprise?" Chen Ye smiled slightly.
Yet, having fallen so far, there was no surprise that could stir his heart anymore.
Chen Ye put away the Jade Scroll and spiritual objects and once again sat cross-legged.
[Withering Glory Mysterious Light Sutra Beginner: 9/10]
His Withering Glory Mysterious Light Sutra had long reached a bottleneck, merely lacking spiritual objects, causing him to stall.
Although one needs to gather the Five Elements spiritual objects to truly advance in cultivation, using these two spiritual objects to achieve Minor Achievement was not an issue.
Chen Ye took a deep breath, recalling the Cultivation Technique.
The Withering Glory Mysterious Light Sutra requires the Cultivator to refine Second Tier spiritual objects of five attributes into primal energy and position them in the five directions of the Dantian Energy Sea to assist the Cultivator in five-element rotation.
By the time of Foundation Establishment, these five primal energies merge into one and fuse into the Tao Foundation.
At that point, the Cultivator can roughly construct a large cycle of five-element rotation.
Chen Ye focused his gaze, holding the two spiritual objects as he began to try operating the Withering Glory Mysterious Light Sutra.
The pure essence of the Wood and Gold Series flowed like two streams from his palms, flooding into his meridians!
"Damn..."
Veins popped on Chen Ye’s forehead; this was ten times more painful than merely operating the Evergreen Technique before!
He immediately let go upon the first attempt.
"No, even if I can endure it, the pain beyond limits might leave hidden injuries, affecting Foundation Establishment... That would be a case of ’trying to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it.’"
He calmed his mind and forcefully suppressed the anxiety within.
"Avoid impatience for longevity... Hmm?"
An inspiration flashed in Chen Ye’s mind, and he decisively used his Cultivation Technique understanding at the Profound Mastery level to cleverly guide the two Five Elements essences,
"Indeed, all the world’s Dharma Methods can be analogously understood. Previously, my mind was agitated, and I foolishly rushed into cultivation."
After three whole days.
When Chen Ye, enduring the suppression of the Locking Spirit Nail, completed the first major cycle, the Dantian Energy Sea, which was on the verge of collapse, suddenly radiated exponentially once more!
[Withering Glory Mysterious Light Sutra Minor Achievement: 1/100]
Success!
A profound and mysterious understanding surged into Chen Ye’s mind.
And within the Dantian, the once chaotic Five Elements Spiritual Power now operated smoothly under the guidance of the Wood and Gold Spiritual Power!
When the other three Five Elements spiritual objects are supplemented, this seemingly rudimentary operation will become an endless cycle!
At this moment, Bu Feifan’s voice also came,
"Steward Chen! Taoist Friend Mao came earlier and brought a large wooden box for you! Oddly, she said it was a gift from someone else. What kind of gift is this big?"
