Chapter 349: Investigating the Investiture of the Gods
Chapter 349: Investigating the Investiture of the Gods
Just as Shen Xinzi secretly admired Pan An's understanding of human nature, Long Qing couldn't help but ask, "With your exceptional abilities, why are you staying in the Medicine Valley?"
Shen Xinzi smiled gently and said, "I'm not from the Taixuan Sect. I just like the atmosphere here and want to stay for a few hundred years to figure out the doubts in my heart."
Several hundred years...
Long Qing noticed a change in Shen Xinzi's gaze, and he began to believe his words.
"You say you're a Wanderer Immortal, but how can you prove it? I'm not a child!" said the thirteen-year-old Long Qing, claiming he wasn't a child, which made Shen Xinzi smile even more.
Shen Xinzi grabbed Long Qing's shoulder and, without waiting for a reaction, leaped into the air.
Long Qing's vision blurred for a moment, and he instinctively closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he was stunned by the sight before him.
He had actually arrived in the heavens!
Below was an endless sea of clouds, and when he looked up, he saw the starry sky, as if he were in the middle of the night, but the stars were brighter and more numerous.
They were densely packed, even more so than the flowers and plants in the valley!
Long Qing's mouth hung open, and his bright eyes sparkled with an unusual brilliance.
The starry sky above him seemed to expand infinitely, and as he spun in place, he didn't even realize that there was no ground beneath his feet.
Shen Xinzi stood by his side, a smile on his face.
Suddenly, he understood Bodhimanda Master's feelings.
No wonder Gu An said that Bodhimanda Master was fond of Sun Wukong.
After spinning several circles, Long Qing suddenly realized he was suspended in mid-air, which scared him so much that he quickly grabbed Shen Xinzi's sleeve.
"Is this the heavens?" he asked Shen Xinzi expectantly.
Seeing the boy's fearlessness, Shen Xinzi had an even higher opinion of him.
Shen Xinzi replied, "That's right. This place is extremely far from the ground. With your previous speed of chasing the White Spirit Rat, it would take at least twenty years to reach here."
Long Qing's eyes widened in surprise, and he instinctively looked down, only to see the thick cloud sea. However, when he gazed into the distance, he saw a patch of blue, but he wasn't sure what it was.
He looked up again and pointed at a shooting star, asking, "What's that?"
Shen Xinzi raised his eyes and answered, "That's the Sky Earth Flying Immortal returning. He's very far from us."
"Sky Earth Flying Immortal... Can I go to the stars?"
"No, only by reaching the Sky Earth Flying Immortal Realm can you cross the invisible Heavenly Wall."
"Sky Earth Flying Immortal... I want to cultivate. I'll take you as my master. Teach me how to reach the Sky Earth Flying Immortal!"
Long Qing clenched his fists and said excitedly.
He hadn't even started Breath Ingestion Cultivation, and Gu An said he would teach him when he turned sixteen and forbade other disciples from teaching him privately.
For this reason, Long Qing had yet to display his talent.
Shen Xinzi observed his extraordinary physique and believed that even if he wasn't a peerless genius, he wouldn't be mediocre.
He also sighed, wondering how Gu An always managed to discover geniuses.
Like Nine-Finger Divine Lord, he suspected that a powerful cultivator was backing Gu An.
What kind of powerful cultivator could even he not detect?
I
In any case, upon hearing Long Qing's words, Shen Xinzi was delighted. He smiled kindly and said, "Reaching the Sky Earth Flying Immortal is very difficult. Are you willing to work hard in your cultivation?"
Long Qing nodded eagerly and assured him, "I will never disappoint you!"
"Aren't you going to kneel and kowtow to me as your master?" Shen Xinzi laughed.
He wanted to emulate Bodhimanda Master and see if, after taking a disciple, he could gain enlightenment.
Long Qing immediately knelt and bowed, then looked up at Shen Xinzi and asked, "Master, I heard that the Medicine Valley once had a genius named Yang Jian. Can I catch up to him?"
Shen Xinzi helped him up and said, "Yang Jian's talent is indeed extraordinary, but your master is even more remarkable than his master. You will surely surpass him in the future.
As soon as Lo Qing heard this, his face lit up with excitement.
At the same time, in the pavilion, Gu An, who was reading a book, raised his lips in a smile.
"Surpassing Yang Jian isn't difficult, but in recent centuries..." Gu An thought to himself, and he began to anticipate the expression Shen Xinzi would have after teaching Lo Qing's cultivation.
With Shen Xinzi's cultivation, how could he help Lo Qing unravel the Return to Primordial Dao?
Half an hour later, Lo Qing pushed open the door and walked in. He approached the desk and looked at Gu An with a complex expression.
Gu An lifted his eyes to look at him and smiled, asking, "What's wrong? Did the Bull Demon King bully you again?"
Lo Qing shook his head and said, "Master, you are the most important person in my heart. Do you believe me?"
This statement amused Gu An. Was this boy feeling guilty?
"Is that so? Then we'll see how you show your filial piety to me in the future." Gu An spoke leisurely, his gaze returning to the book in his hand.
Lo Qing said earnestly, "I will definitely show my filial piety to you in the future!"
Once I become an immortal, I'll make sure the Taixuan Sect respects you! Lo Qing's fighting spirit grew even stronger.
Seeing that Gu An didn't continue the conversation, Lo Qing asked curiously, "Master, what are you reading? Can I take a look?"
Gu An closed the book, Green Knight Travels, and glanced at him, saying, "If you have nothing to do, go chop firewood!"
Upon hearing this, Lo Qing immediately left.
"Immortals don't have time to chop firewood!"
He left behind these spirited words, and Gu An smiled, continuing to read his book.
Two days later, in an unoccupied area of Medicine Valley, Shen Xinzi and Lo Qing sat side by side in the bamboo forest.
"Master, why haven't I cultivated spiritual power yet?" Lo Qing couldn't help but open his eyes and ask.
With his eyes closed, Shen Xinzi said, "Not many people can cultivate spiritual power within two days. Don't be impatient."
He also had doubts in his mind. Why was it so slow? But when he thought about Yang Jian's experience, he recalled that Yang Jian's cultivation of breath ingestion was also very slow. Perhaps Lo Qing's physique was special.
He didn't think further. He was very patient and wouldn't become anxious because of this.
A figure swiftly passed over the bamboo forest, causing Shen Xinzi to look up.
"It's him..." Shen Xinzi muttered to himself.
"Who?"
Lo Qing asked curiously, as he had also seen the figure that just passed by.
Shen Xinzi shook his head without replying.
Lo Qing's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and ran out of the bamboo forest.
Shen Xinzi also stood up. He wasn't angry at Lo Qing's behavior, after all, this boy was only thirteen years old.
In the pavilion, Gu An put down the book he was reading and picked up Investiture of the Gods, carefully flipping through its pages.
Clang!
The window suddenly opened, startling Gu An, who turned to look and then smiled in surprise.
"Li Shixiong! How did you come back?" Gu An asked excitedly.
Li Ya landed and straightened his clothes while humming, "What? You don't welcome me?"
"How could that be? Come, sit down!"
Gu An put down Investiture of the Gods and got up to make tea for Li Ya.
Li Ya sat down at the table and, seeing the book Gu An had been holding, smiled, "So many years have passed, and you're still reading Investiture of the Gods. Are you trying to gain enlightenment from it like those people?"
Gu An replied while making tea, "I'm just casually reading. The stories in this book definitely aren't as exciting as your experiences. Come, tell me how these years have been. Have you been injured?"
Li Ya's expression turned serious. "With my current abilities, how could I possibly be injured? Moreover, I have Divine Anomaly City in my hands. Since you want to listen, I'll tell you. You can take notes later."
Gu An carried the hot tea and sat down, placing the teacup in front of Li Ya. "That's true. With Divine Anomaly City, even my disciple Lo Qing wouldn't be injured."
