Chapter 240 Traditional Art
Fortunately, they had saved her...
Looking at the green light in front of him, he stared at the tiny yet dreamy figure inside that was only the size of a thumb.
That tree spirit reminded Li Changshou of some stories he had heard in his previous life.
The kind that was very serious.
When Li Changshou found Aunt-Master Wan Jiangyu he once again recalled his master’s aged appearance.
Humans actually only had a few goals in life. Even if it was having an old partner and someone whom they could rely on, it was still considered a goal.
If his master had a chance to live forever, Li Changshou would not be that worried as a disciple.
However, he had to do it for his Master.
Ah, even if he earns the position of a deity of the Heavenly Courts and the protection of merit in the future, he can only barely live for tens of thousands of years.
He cannot even compare some old spiritual beasts who did not cultivate in the Primordial World.
Although the remnant spirits of Wan Jiangyu were preserved, they were still very weak. A normal tree spirit could transform into a human figure.
At that moment, Aunt-Master Wan Jiangyu’s reincarnation of the tree spirit could only lie in the light ball. It was barely breathing, as if it would dissipate at any moment. However, as long as she returned to the Immortal Du Sect, there would be a treasure land with rich vitality that could allow her to recuperate...
The five Immortal Du Sect cultivators did not delay any further. They quickly flew out of the Major Chiliocosm, found a direction in the void, and returned to the five continents.
What should I do next?
He could not wait for his aunt-master to recover before he went to find his master and chuckled...
Master, do you want a Dao companion? Uh, just kidding, just kidding.
It was extremely difficult for the tree spirits to cultivate. They were like spirit bodies that lived in the tree spirits. It was very difficult for them to comprehend the Great Dao.
Based on Li Changshou’s personal point of view, the best choice was to let Aunt-Master Wan Jiangyu return to reincarnation after the tree spirit’s lifespan was exhausted. so that she could reincarnate... Of course, he could not make the decision alone. He still had to discuss with his little Grandmaster and junior sister.
His master, Qi Yuan, did not have the right to know or speak for now.
On the way back, Jiang Lin’er held the little Tree Spirit in her palm and hugged him. She was very careful and kept injecting immortal power into it...
At the same time, the Heavenly Immortal Daoist named Cai Wei, Li Changshou and the others did not make things too difficult for him.
Li Changshou explained the matter to Cai Wei and gave him sufficient gifts of gratitude. At the same time, he made Cai Wei swear that he would no longer pursue the matter.
The basic version with a thousand words.
At that time,Sect Leader Ji Wuyou also casually placed the other tree spirits that had been saved together in the forest... Whether they could survive in the future was another matter. Ji Wuyou rode the cloud and the five of them sat cross-legged on the cloud while crossing the sky.
The Golden Immortal realm Sect Leader had combined the function of transportation, battle, commentary, and flag-raising. This time, he had left a deep impression on Li Changshou, the disciple of the sect.
Sect Leader has become a reliable Golden Immortal after he recovered from his injuries.
Speaking of which, that was the first time Li Changshou had flown that far away from the five continents, although it was his paper effigy.
In the boundless void, the unique scenery that could be seen were the worlds that would occasionally appear and quickly pass by.
Jiang Lin’er was not in the mood to appreciate such situations.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn the other hand, Exalted Wang Qing, Youqin Xuanya, and Li Changshou had been cultivating in seclusion all year round. They were very interested in such a strange scene.
The Great Worlds and Small Worlds that had evolved from fragments of the Primordial World. The structure was limitless.
The earth and the ocean lay flat on the same level. It was enveloped by a semi-circle-shaped sky. The sky was projected by the stars in the sky.
Most of those projections were incomplete. They corresponded to the perfected Dao laws of various worlds.
Since they were in a hurry to rush back to the Immortal Du Sect, they did not have the chance to look for a world to observe. Furthermore, based on the cultivation realm of the five of them from the Immortal Du Sect, it would be difficult for them to gain any insight even if they stared at those ‘worlds’ for thousands of years.
The Universe Creation was a great technique that only mighty figures could comprehend.
When he thought of the world, Li Changshou could not help but think of the twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls that could form the Universe.
At the thought of the Sea God Calming Pearls, Li Changshou thought of Master Zhao, who was loyal and had no bones in his legs, he could not help but smile.
Master Zhao was quite cute.
“Senior Brother Changshou,” Youqin Xuanya asked softly from the side. “Do you feel relieved today?” “Yes.” Li Changshou nodded slightly. He looked at the three elders in front of him and gestured for Youqin Xuanya to speak.
I wonder what the effect of the previous oath is like.
Li Changshou decided to take that opportunity to chat with Youqin Xuanya and solidify his recovery.
Li Changshou found a random topic and asked, “Junior Sister, did you face any difficulties when you were cultivating?” Youqin Xuanya nodded calmly and asked that question. However, Youqin Xuanya nodded calmly.
She asked, “Senior Brother, there’s a line in the ‘Inaction Sutra’ that says “The principle of self-interest is the way to progress. You will advance when you don’t compete for power. When you are confused, you will gain clarity.’ Can it be understood as...”
And so on.
Li Changshou really wanted to give himself two slaps. Why am I being polite? What nonsense am I spouting?
When talking to Youqin Xuanya, he had to be straightforward and not beat around the bush. Otherwise, she would believe whatever he said. In the end, he found a task for himself out of boredom and started talking to Youqin Xuanya...
They discussed the Dao and verified the Dao.
Why do I suddenly feel that if that situation happened in my previous life, it should be...
Shocking! An ordinary-looking male university student checked into a room in the middle of the night with the school belle, only to revise homework!
Yes, it is full of decent energy!
Sect Leader Ji Wuyou estimated the duration of the journey and reckoned that they would reach the Immortal Du Sect in about 13 days.
Along the way, Jiang Lin’er and Exalted Wang Qing used their immortal powers to continuously heal the tree spirit.
He reckoned that before they returned to the Immortal Du Sect, the tree spirit would not need to look for a treasure ground to recuperate. It would definitely be able to live again. Jiang Lin’er specially reminded Li Changshou not to tell Qi Yuan about that.
When the tree spirit’s lifespan was exhausted, Wan Jiangyu’s True Spirit would enter the ‘Human Dao’ and restart the Immortal Dao. It would not be too late to mention that matter to Qi Yuan by them.
However, no one knew what would happen between Qi Yuan and Wan Jiangyu in the future...
Li Changshou did not stay idle along the way.
After explaining a few questions to Youqin Xuanya, Youqin Xuanya took out her “mistake book”... ahem!
She took out a book of questions that she had accumulated for many years, which even her master, Jiang Jingshan, could no longer explain. She kept asking Li Changshou about how she could answer them.
Li Changshou gradually felt that it was not bad.
It is not bad to have a fellow Daoist to talk about the Dao and discuss cultivation with. She’s also quite pleasing to the eye. That’s much better than having a Dao companion who keeps letting her imaginations run wild and creating trouble.
Moreover, Junior Sister Youqin’s potential is not bad. She also knows how to adapt in cultivation. After some nurturing, she will be an outstanding human Dharma treasure in the future...
She will be an elite of Ren School!
On the sixth day of crossing the void, Li Changshou was explaining the Dao to Youqin Xuanya when a wave suddenly rose in his heart.
His spiritual will was slightly disturbed and he heard that voice again. “Brother Sect Master-“
Uh, how can the Second Sect Master be so promiscuous today?
From the trembling voice, Li Changshou could tell that Ao Yi’s heart was slightly unstable...
“Junior Sister Youqin, let’s talk later.” Li Changshou looked at Youqin Xuanya and said, “I have some understanding. I’ll experience it myself.”
Youqin Xuanya hurriedly said, “Senior Brother, please go ahead. I’ve been disturbing your cultivation.”
“It’s not a problem,” Li Changshou said. “If it’s just about cultivation, I’m happy to verify it with you.”
After saying that, Li Changshou closed his eyes and folded his arms, as if he was cultivating.
In fact, most of his attention had returned to his original body. He then used the statue to connect his spiritual will with Ao Yi...
In the dream created by the statue, Ao Yi rushed over when he saw Li Changshou’s figure condense under the statue’s feet. “Brother Sect Master! Good news! Great news!”
“Oh?” Li Changshou smiled and said, “Why are you and your sister-in-law so quick to act? Am I going to be an uncle now?” Ao Yi’s face turned red. He quickly said, “It’s not that. The situation in the dragon race is unstable now. I don’t dare to think that way... Brother Sect Master, this is a great thing!”
“Oh?!
Li Changshou smiled and asked, “What good thing could make you so happy?”
“The West Ocean Dragon Palace...”
Upon hearing the words ‘West Ocean’, Li Changshou had a bad premonition. He knew that half of the West Ocean had been infiltrated by the Western Sect. Basically, only the West Ocean Dragon King could be trusted. Any news that came from that side could be treated as the Western Sect being the one behind it.
However, Li Changshou was a little confused when he heard Ao Yi’s explanation.
The news that made Ao Yi so happy was... the members of the West Ocean Dragon Palace decided to change their old ways. They imitated the success experience of the Second Prince of the East Ocean Dragon Palace, Ao Yi, and sent thirty-six members of the dragon race to try and see if they could join the Saint’s faction.
Li Changshou rubbed the spot between brows. He could not understand what was going on.
If it was done by the Western Sect, what were they after?
Are they using this move to plant a snitch in the Dao Sect?
Isn’t that unnecessary? How could they hide it from the Saint?
The problem was whether or not the Saint wanted to deduce and if there were other Saints interfering. Li Changshou said, “Tell me in detail.” “Alright.” Ao Yi nodded solemnly and explained the situation in detail. This initiative was proposed by the younger brother of the West Ocean Dragon King. The West Ocean Dragon King gathered all the ministers of the Dragon Palace and the other Turtle Prime Ministers sent by the three other Dragon Kings to discuss in detail for seven days. During those seven days, the West Ocean Dragon Palace’s meeting had been held forty-eight times and they had gotten into an argument hundreds of times. It fully reflected the bravery and fighting spirit of the ancient nobles.
According to Ao Yi’s words, when it came to important matters of the dragon race, this was often the case during meetings... It couldn’t be helped. Those were the traditional skills of the dragon race.
The final discussion ended in a deadlock. The West Ocean Dragon King came up with a compromise and reduced the original hundred dragons to thirty-six dragons. Among them, there were two Dragon Princes and three Dragon Princesses from the West Ocean Dragon Palace. There were thirteen nephews and the remaining eighteen were the dragon race’s handsome talents...
After hearing Ao Yi’s explanation, Li Changshou smiled.
What kind of scheme was that? Or was it something that Li Changshou could not see through at the moment?
However, he was already full of vigilance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi Changshou smiled and asked, “Do you have all the destinations that the dragons are going to visit to acknowledge a master?”
“The Three Sects of the Middle Continent.”
Ao Yi immediately continued, “This is also the main reason why so many members of the race object to it. I understand the pride in the hearts of my clansmen. However, it is already very troublesome to enter a Dao venue like Golden Ao Island. Therefore, the place that the West Ocean Dragon Palace is going to send the dragons to become disciples is the Dao Sects and Immortal Sects that sent their people to attend the Three Sects’ Meet! Brother Sect Master, the opening ceremony of the Immortal Du Sect should be in another twenty to thirty years. Two of my cousins should be going to the Immortal Du Sect to try and see if they can enter the sect.”
When Li Changshou heard that, he could not help but raise his eyebrows...
The dragon race’s ability to gather intelligence was not weak. They had even helped the Immortal Du Sect deduce the date of the opening ceremony.
Should I reject it directly or should I let nature take its course and not interfere?
“Brother Yi, the Immortal Du Sect is ranked last among the Immortal Sects of Ren School,” Li Changshou said. “If they want to be taken in as disciples, it’s more appropriate to go to the Great Immortal Sects like the Carefree Immortal Sect.” “They’ve all been sent there. This time, half of the dragon children chose the Ren School,” Ao Yi said with a smile.
“Brother Sect Master, because of our Sea God Sect, the Dragon race has a good impression of Ren School.”
I understand now...
Li Changshou suddenly understood something after hearing his words.
Could it be that the Western Sect still wants to use the tactic of sowing discord!?!
This time, he changed it to using the Dragon Princess to create trouble in the Ren School’s faction and anger the Ren School?
This move could barely be considered brilliant...
It’d be a pity that if he really had such a plan, it would be all for naught.
Strictly speaking, there were only two people in the main body of Ren School. They were the Grand Pure One and the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du. Li Changshou was working hard to become the third person, but he was barely there.
If he wanted to make people hate the dragon race, he had to go to Tushita Palace to cause trouble.
Moreover, the Western Sect probably did not fully understand the stance of the Ren School —the Ren School stood behind the Heavenly Courts, not behind the dragons. When Ao Yi saw Li Changshou frown, he asked anxiously, “Brother Sect Master, do you dislike this idea?”
“Ah, no.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “It would be great if the dragon race can understand.”
When Ao Yi heard that, he immediately smiled and sighed.
Back then, he was young and reckless. He wanted to wake the dragon race up and torment them all.
Now, he was gradually becoming more stable and focused on the structure of Heaven and Earth, searching for a way out for the dragon race...
That was probably the difference between a pubescent dragon and a young dragon.
Ao Yi asked again, “Brother Sect Master, do you have anything that you want me to take note of?”
Li Changshou pondered about it and said, “I don’t know about the other three Immortal Sects. In Ren School, the factions are... hmm, more romantic. Although the Ren School advocates letting nature take its course, the matters about Dao-companions are more conservative. The dragon race is more open-minded in this aspect. If possible, it would be better to choose some dragons that are more obedient to be sent over to the factions of Ren School, lest they cause any unhappiness. Of course, this is just a little suggestion.”
Ao Yi fell into deep thought when he heard that. He nodded heavily and said seriously, “Don’t worry, Sect Master. I’ll go and remind them.”
Following that, Ao Yi bowed with a Dao salute and hurriedly cut off the communication.
Li Changshou could not help but blink when he saw that...
Could it be that the two female dragons who are going to be sent to the Immortal Du Sect, are really going to traffic red strings? That would be a little exciting... After Ao Yi’s reminder, Li Changshou recalled the opening ceremony. The next opening ceremony of the Immortal Du Sect, which happened once every two hundred years was only twenty to thirty years away. It was probably when the “popularity of the Heavenly Tribulation” of the disciples in the sect would die down. Those who should stay, would stay while others would leave. The sect would be prepared to recruit new disciples to cultivate.
If the reincarnation of Aunt-Master Wan Jiangyu happened sooner, she would be able to return at the opening ceremony...
Li Changshou pondered for a while before smiling I’ll let Little Grandmaster make the arrangements. On the 12th day of crossing the void, the five continents were in sight. Sect Leader Ji Wuyou suddenly turned his head and asked, “By the way, Wang Qing, Changshou, I have a mystical ability that Master taught me. Should we study it together?”
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
If it’s the kind that needs me to cough up blood for hundreds of years, please forget it.
