“You know about Dao Body too?” This time it was Master Luo who got taken by surprise.
“I came across it while browsing through some random books in the past. They mentioned it as something possessed by ancient people. When they found techniques that are compatible with their Dao Body, they managed to cultivate from a mortal body to immortality in just a decade or so. I initially thought this was just a legend, but it seems that I have got it confirmed from you today.” Shen Luo explained.
“It is rumored that cultivators with the highest grade of Dao Body indeed have this heaven-defying cultivation speed, but since it remains a rumor, its authenticity is naturally hard to verify.” Master Luo said.
“The highest grade… Does the Dao Body vary in grades?” Shen Luo asked.
“Of course, it varies. Speaking of the lower grade Dao Body cultivators, their talent does outstrip ordinary people, but they only cultivate slightly faster in comparison. On the other hand, the highest grade Dao Body cultivators can cultivate several times faster than ordinary people and even up to dozens of times. Moreover, they possess a variety of talents, almost like god-like powers. The difference between them is enormous.” Master Luo explained.
Upon hearing this, Shen Luo silently pondered the speed of his cultivation in his dream. It seemed to be even faster than what Master Luo described as the top-grade Dao Body. However, he didn’t notice any special talents in himself.
“Why do you suddenly ask about this?” Master Luo asked, seeing Shen Luo lost in thought.
“Master Luo, I was simply curious. I thought if I had such a qualification, maybe cultivation for a longer life wouldn’t be a problem.” Shen Luo sighed and said.
“A cultivator possessing the highest grade Dao Body appears scarcely once every five or six hundred years. You really don’t need to fantasize about it. In the future, you should stay grounded and focus on your cultivation.” Master Luo’s expression became more solemn as he spoke.
“Master Luo, I will remember your teachings. I’ve disturbed you for a long time today, I will take my leave now.” Shen Luo bid his farewell respectfully.“You can leave.” Master Luo nodded.
Shen Luo, still thinking about his dream, turned and walked towards the door of the courtyard.
Yet, he had barely reached the main hall when he saw two figures outside the courtyard door leaping in.
One of the men was tall and had a dark complexion. A short grey moustache lined his lips and he was dressed in a unique Taiji Daoist Robe and wearing a Lotus Daoist Crown on his head. His face was stern, serious. It was no other than Elder Master Wang Qingsong.
Standing beside him was a handsome young man, Gu Hualing, his personal disciple.
“I greet Elder Master Wang, Senior Brother Gu.” A sudden chill rose in Shen Luo’s heart, but he still saluted the two respectfully.
When the two saw him, surprise flashed in their eyes, obviously, they did not expect him to be there.
Seeing that the two did not respond, Shen Luo circled around them, intending to exit the courtyard.
Just then, Master Luo’s voice rang out from behind, “Senior Brother, what brings you to my courtyard today?”
It seemed that he also was surprised by the arrival of Master Wang and his disciple.
Since the incident on the back mountain where Shen Luo accidentally overheard Gu Hualing’s words, he has been extremely wary of Gu Hualing. At this moment, all he wanted to do was to leave as soon as possible, avoiding any interaction with him.
However, just as he was about to open the door, the two wooden doors creaked and closed right in front of him.
Shen Luo was taken aback. As he turned around, he saw Elder Master Wang’s sleeve moving back and forth as if he was waving. It was evident that he had closed the courtyard doors using his mystic arts.
“Senior Brother, what are you doing?” Master Luo furrowed his brows, asking.
“Master Luo, I don’t have time for idle chatter today, quickly hand over the ‘Pure Yang Scripture’.” Elder Master Wang said coldly.
“Pure Yang Scripture? Is that some kind of skill? Shouldn’t it be the Pure Yang Sword Technique?” Shen Luo’s heart skipped a beat as he heard this. He had a vague feeling that his presence here was very ominous. Ṙά𐌽ȪВƐS̈
“Elder Master Wang, do you even know what you’re doing?” Master Luo looked extremely surprised, his face changing slightly.
“It seems like you’re not planning on handing it over?” Elder Master Wang’s gaze became even sharper.
Shen Luo felt an eerie tension in the courtyard. He tried to quietly open the door, but as soon as he moved, Gu Hualing’s frown flickered in his direction. Shen Luo instantly froze, feeling like he was being stared at by a venomous snake, spreading a chill throughout his body.
“The ‘Pure Yang Scripture’ you are talking about is the fundamental scripture of our pavilion, and even if you want it, you need to ask Elder Master Guant, coming to me seems like you have the wrong person.” Master Luo’s face also turned serious.
“Luo Yuanzhen, do you really think I don’t know that you are the guardian of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion in this generation? Feng Yang is nothing more than a decoy.” Elder Master Wang slowly stated.
“I don’t know how you came up with such huge nonsense.” Master Luo laughed, shaking his sleeve coldly.
“Whether you admit it or not, I will find out soon.” Elder Master Wang sneered.
“Wang Qingsong, are you planning to force it, in the end?” Master Luo straightened up.
“Hehe, true, in terms of cultivation level and strength, I’m not as good as you, Master Luo. However, times have changed.” Elder Master Wang enigmatically mused.
“Oh, so you think with your beloved disciple added to the equation, you’re sure to win? Not to mention just one, even if there were ten more, I wouldn’t be bothered.” Master Luo glanced at Gu Hualing and said.
“Where does Master Luo get such confidence? How dare I, as a junior, act rashly in front of you? However, Master Luo, why does your brow seem a little dark today, oh no, even your face is starting to darken.” Gu Hualing smirked and commented respectfully in response.
Just as Master Luo was about to retort, his expression suddenly stiffens, and he quickly used his right hand to perform several quick punches at several major points on his body.
At the same time, he turned over his left hand, removing a talisman and attaching it to his left chest. The talisman flashed green, and a few green lights were shot out, quickly absorbed into his body. Then, a faint green glow began to emanate from his face.
However, Shen Luo still clearly saw that a faint black halo suddenly appeared on Master Luo’s forehead, while his face began to turn black. his veins bulging visibly.
Although Master Luo’s face flashed green as if resisting the change, his skin was still rapidly turning black at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Master Luo has been poisoned!” Shen Luo’s heart skipped a beat.
“Let’s see how long you can last. If you want the antidote, exchange it for the scripture!” Elder Master Wang laughed and shook his sleeve vigorously.
From within, as if there was wind, a thunderous bang sounded, and a flash of lightning shot towards Master Luo.
Master Luo didn’t utter a word. Two beams of light shone on his legs, and with the Seven Stars Firmament Step, his figure suddenly disappeared and reappeared in the middle of the courtyard, just missing the lightning.
With a vigorous flick of his sleeve, a talisman was thrown towards the sky.
With a ‘whistle’, the symbol shot into the sky like a firework, just about to explode high above.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed in the sky. Someone had flown up there and grabbed the warning arrow talisman in their hand.
Shen Luo looked up, his expression changed, shocked to his core.
The man in the sky had a handsome face, a gentle smile – it was none other than Gu Hualing.
