Chapter 119: Opening the Mystic Gate, Taking on an Apprentice - A Win-Win Situation (Part 2)
Chapter 119: Opening the Mystic Gate, Taking on an Apprentice - A Win-Win Situation (Part 2)
She felt that... it was as if she were the protagonist.
And this so-called story was created by the person in front of her, using her as the blueprint.
But...
Could she really be like that?
But if he could truly achieve that, all his worries, frustrations, and hardships over the years, as well as the suffering he had endured, would be left behind forever.
Moreover, he would have an incredibly brilliant and bright future.
And this future would undoubtedly be a smooth journey!
Seeing her dazed expression, Lu Ming continued telling the story while secretly laughing.
At times, one couldn't help but admire those seniors from Earth.
None of them had cultivated immortality, nor did they know what the immortal world looked like. There was not even a trace of cultivation on Earth, and they had never seen a cultivator...
Yet, they all seemed like they had some kind of cheat code.
Writing a novel, they thoroughly summarized the protagonist templates of the cultivation world... again and again.
It was simply too insightful.
At first glance, it seemed like it was tailor-made for them.
All he needed to do was modify the cultivation stages, and he could directly use it to deceive... ah, no, directly use it.
That was how it was before.
And that's how it is now.
Perhaps the story he was telling at this moment wasn't considered top-notch on Earth, but it was so fitting! It was so relatable to Ji Chitong.
It would be difficult for her not to feel immersed.
And once she felt immersed, she would believe that they had a solution~
When the time came, it would be as easy as water flowing into a channel.
As for whether there was a solution or not, it would depend on the situation.
Perhaps~
Like Qin Yu, she could comprehend the cultivation technique on her own?
If she couldn't comprehend it.
Then he would help her comprehend it.
After all, he could now share the talents of so many protagonist templates. As long as she took him as her master, and with her own talent added later, it should be possible to comprehend a cultivation technique suitable for her...
Right?
It was at this moment that the story finally reached its conclusion.
"On that day."
"He was still at the First Stage."
"But on that day, he opened a thousand Mystic Gates and slew an immortal!"
Boom!
Ji Chitong's body trembled, her eyes burning with intensity.
Before she could react, Lu Ming laughed again, "If I were to give a title to the story I just told, I'd call it 'The Strongest Opening Mystic Gate'."
"Actually, I have another story."
"Another one?!"
Ji Chitong's delicate body trembled again, her eyes filled with yearning.
She was just a step away from saying, "I want..."
"Hmm, but in this story, the one at the First Stage isn't the protagonist, but there's a twist to it. Do you want to hear it?"
"I do!"
She no longer held back.
This was about her future, about her life and death, about everything she had! How could she not listen?
"Hmm, this story is called 'Once Upon a Time, There Was a Mountain...'"
The words "Spirit Sword Mountain" almost slipped out of his mouth.
But then he thought, that's not right! Spirit Sword Sect is quite famous. If I say there was a Spirit Sword Mountain, won't it be easily misunderstood?
What if she gets carried away after hearing it and goes to Spirit Sword Sect to kneel and beg for apprenticeship?
"Ahem."
"Once Upon a Time, There Was a Mountain... Moon Embrace Mountain!"
"This name... is pretty good."
Ji Chitong blinked her eyes.
Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and on the mountain, there was a temple, and in the temple, there was a monk...
"The name isn't the focus, just listen to the story~"
Lu Ming changed the topic and began telling the story again.
However, this time, he made a few more modifications.
Not only the cultivation stage names but also Wang Wu's cultivation stage was changed.
She was a Golden Core cultivator, her body filled with 'cores', but the Golden Core Stage wasn't the First Stage.
So, Lu Ming made some adjustments.
What Golden Core Stage?
She was at the First Stage, the Opening Mystic Gate!
The Strongest Opening Mystic Gate!
And so, three days passed~
The two walked side by side along the East Sea, wandering aimlessly.
Watching the tides ebb and flow, gazing at the fiery sunrise...
Finally.
The story came to an end.
Lu Ming took out a Spirit Fruit and began eating it with relish.
The sweet juice was refreshing and invigorating.
Ji Chitong gradually snapped out of the story, only to realize that her entire body ached, her mouth was parched, and her stomach rumbled like thunder.
She was hungry.
Although her physical body was powerful, she couldn't go without sleep or food for seven days and seven nights, but she was still only at the First Stage and couldn't fast.
Moreover, due to her powerful physical body, it actually increased her consumption and metabolism.
"Are you hungry?"
Lu Ming smiled, then rubbed his clothes and threw her a Spirit Fruit.
"Thank you."
Ji Chitong caught it, her red lips parting as she expressed her gratitude.
She didn't hesitate and started eating.
After all, Lu Ming's cultivation was not low, and at his stage, he was already immune to dust and dirt, and wouldn't excrete any impurities, so there was no need to worry about cleanliness.
However, seeing her decisiveness, Lu Ming couldn't help but smile slightly.
It was better to be straightforward.
He didn't like people who were shy and hesitant.
They had walked for seven days and seven nights.
Although her body wasn't tired, mentally, she felt like her legs didn't belong to her anymore.
Lu Ming simply squatted by the seaside, watching the rising sun and munching on the Spirit Fruit.
killed!
"Fellow Daoist, you..."
"You are truly unique."
Ji Chitong, eating the Spirit Fruit, was surprised.
"In my opinion, your true cultivation is probably even beyond that of Great Powerhouses, right?"
Her beautiful eyes flashed, "A cultivator of such a high level should be above the mortal world, yet your actions are like... like..."
Lu Ming smiled, "A commoner on the side of the road?"
Squatting on the side of the road to eat.
This indeed didn't seem like something an immortal would do.
In the legends, the Divine Enthronement War was said to have started because a Sage lost face.
The Seized Sect was almost wiped out in the direct battle.
In reality, even a Second Stage junior cultivator would never make such a 'coarse' move.
But Lu Ming didn't care about these things.
No matter how strong or high his cultivation was...
First and foremost, he was a person!
With human nature! If he felt right, then he would do it.
What an unfeeling path.
What restrains oneself...
Do I need to restrain myself?
Restrain for whom to see?
How do you all see me?
Seeing his face full of ridicule, Ji Chitong was slightly taken aback, then nodded and smiled bitterly, "Indeed."
"Then what do you think?"
Lu Ming countered once again.
Perhaps, in the eyes of other cultivators, my behavior is quite crude and despicable.
But what about you?
Ji Chitong remained silent.
Instead, she responded with action.
She squatted beside Lu Ming, mimicking his posture, and began to munch.
"In fact, I liked this when I was a child."
She spoke while munching, "I always felt it was more savory this way, but later, I was gradually influenced by others and stopped doing so."
"Oh?"
Lu Ming laughed, "I don't feel it's more savory this way, it's just that I feel exhausted from walking, and squatting is more comfortable."
"..."
Ji Chitong was speechless, choked with emotion.
I thought we had found common ground, but you~!?
She felt somewhat helpless, her mind, however, was spinning nonstop.
At this moment, the anxious one is she!
After hearing these two stories, she was already serene and brimming with anticipation for the future, but...
What step should I take next?
Talking about it is easy, what the strongest First Stage, the most profound Mystic Gate Realm, opening ten thousand Mystic Gates, and so on.
But, how to open them?
Everyone knows, the human body has nine Mystic Gates, ten thousand? ??
Where to open them?!
If you really open so many, would you not become a sieve?
How to open, where to open?
What about the technique?
Ji Chitong was in a tangle, with no clue.
But she had a feeling...
The friend beside Lu Ming, there must be a way!
Otherwise, why would he tell me such stories?
Reason?
!
Surely not just to shock myself, to whet my own appetite?
What benefit does this have for him?
She nibbled the spirit fruit, her thoughts, however, were at their peak, nearly burning out her CPU.
Having lived for over three hundred years, her mind had never turned so fast.
Swiftly, she unraveled the threads, feeling she found her solution...
The reason.
She whispered, "He indeed didn't say wrong, with his strength, if he intended to harm me, I could not resist, not even commit suicide, only let him act wantonly as he wished."
"But... what if he has special preferences?"
"Like, he doesn't like using force, but rather prefers water to flow naturally, to cooperate, or even to take the initiative?"
"Before, seemed to have heard many similar tales."
"Some powerful figures, psychologically twisted, enjoy playing with hearts..."
"..."
"!!!"
Thinking this far, Ji Chitong was instantly conflicted.
Not that she was overly confident, but she introspected, from head to toe, including the storage bag, what could such a 'great powerhouse' value?
No matter how she thought, there was nothing!
What do I have that would matter to a great powerhouse?
Why go through such trouble, telling myself stories?
Only my unblemished body and still somewhat good looks and figure, could attract some interest.
Combined with Lu Ming's earlier unhidden admiration...
She felt her guess was about right.
But...
Should I agree?
Subconsciously, she did not wish to.
After all...
It's only been a few days, neither knowing each other well nor any feelings.
However, compared to that, the 'future', simple as it may seem, almost bears everything.
The cultivation technique or technique to open ten thousand Mystic Gates!
But, can't just casually, without reason, and expect him to impart it to me?
No kin, no acquaintance, why should he?
Why should he?
Because I have a big face?
My face isn’t that big! The Immortal Martial Continent has always been a place where the weak are preyed upon by the strong, and what righteousness, is often a facade, only interests endure.
If I can't offer what he wants, 'interests', how would he impart the cultivation technique to me?
Only...
Should it really be like this?
"Yet if not like this, what would my life be like?"
"Centuries later, to become a wisp of dust, and vanish?"
"I don't want that."
"I have too much to do."
"And... there are reasons to live on!"
Unawares when, the spirit fruit was already gnawed bare.
Even Ji Chitong didn't realize, she had eaten half the core, until a bitter taste filled her mouth, did she regain awareness.
Turning her head.
Looking at Lu Ming's handsome, rugged profile, after hesitation, she was suddenly at ease.
"In fact..."
"I'm not in the red."
"Let's consider it as I had hired him."
Thinking this, her face flushed.
"Without paying, I even profited."
"After all, I'm just a First Stage cultivator, and he should be a great powerhouse."
"Afterward, I can still obtain the techniqueTo"ToAnd step onto the invincible path..."
"To accomplish everything I want to!"
But...
"Wouldn't he be too soulless?"
"Clearly wanting, yet not speaking up, pretending to be calm, forcing a woman to take the initiative... to act even...?"
"Playing with hearts, such soullessness!"
"How despicable!"
Mind in a tangle, but the decision already made, would not change.
"How?"
Seeing her all along.
Her face, now, flushed abnormally, Lu Ming was taken aback, "What's that look for?"
"Nothing."
Ji Chitong replied, inwardly thinking, "Die, then die!"
"Active, then active."
"Hmph, if I take the initiative, then I truly hired you..."
In the next second, she gritted her teeth, then her red lips parted and closed, "I will."
"?"
Lu Ming took out another spirit fruit and offered it to her.
But she didn't take it.
Before understanding the situation, she suddenly pounced, breath sweetly in his nose~
Her tender, warm body in his arms, and those alluring red lips biting the spirit fruit in her mouth.
Even... she licked my lips, and then licked her own?
"You audacious demoness!"
Lu Ming was startled.
"..."
"Why are you undressing me?"
"Speak your mind, don't just act so wildly!"
"We haven't reached this point yet!!!"
Lu Ming was stunned.
Looking at the silent yet wildly passionate Ji Chitong, he had no idea what had happened.
But she didn't speak, only becoming more passionate and proactive.
It had come to this point.
This was unbearable!
Even a Buddha would get angry!
"You audacious demoness, you don't seem to care about me at all!"
This fellow grunted in anger.
As a man, could I let myself be bullied like this?
Casually setting up a formation...
Lu Ming lost his temper!
Not long after, Ji Chitong could no longer act so wildly.
She could only passively endure.
As the saying goes, the moon shines through the pine trees, and the clear spring flows...
In the future.
Lu Ming instinctively felt like having a cigarette afterward.
But he discovered, there wasn't any.
Well, I'll have to make some time later, otherwise, I'll always feel like something's missing.
Before he could figure it out, he felt a warm sensation on his back again, and the 'beautiful snake demoness' was embracing him once more.
Could I bear this?!
"You demoness, help me in my cultivation!"
"..."
Three days later.
After her first intimate experience, Ji Chitong was completely exhausted.
"I've already tried everything, using all my strength. He should... be satisfied, right?"
"I hope he's satisfied and will pass on the cultivation techniques of the Ten Thousand Profound Mystic Gates to me."
"Otherwise... sigh."
"It's just that this beast is too wild, not understanding how to cherish a beautiful woman. I'm almost exhausted to death!"
Even the strength to put on clothes was gone.
This physical body, it's simply...
Defying heaven!
Even Ji Chitong could feel that he hadn't reached his limit and was still 'restraining' himself.
Not to mention, he was quite considerate, at least he wasn't pushing me to my limits. But this...
Pah!
What am I thinking about?!
Ahhhh!
Ji Chitong, have you gone mad?!
Looking at the robust figure beside her and the fiery gaze, she was truly afraid.
"Ahem."
Lu Ming waved his hand and put on his clothes, then covered Ji Chitong as well.
Otherwise, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back.
Not to mention, this kind of feeling was truly indescribable.
Especially, with her body so responsive and passionate, it was an unparalleled sensation, like a fish in water~
Compared to this, his previous experiences on Earth with those young ladies were like comparing heaven and earth.
Afterwards, he covered his forehead with one hand and sighed, "Sorry, originally, I didn't want this."
Ji Chitong was dumbfounded.
"Huh?"
"What?"
"You, me, this??"
Her lips parted, her expression blank, her words incoherent...
"That's not right!"
She murmured, "Then why are you telling me all this?"
"No ulterior motives, just a chance encounter? Why are you helping me?"
"I... have nothing else to offer!"
Lu Ming: "..."
"Wow."
"It's actually possible?"
This fellow was overjoyed.
A perfect solution.
