Halfway up the Eighteenth Peak, a waterfall cascaded down, where Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi were sparring in front of the falls.
Yun Tianqiong’s cultivation in the Qi Refinement Realm contained Fearless Sword Intent. Facing Ling Xi of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he was surprisingly able to hold his own!
Li Cheng did not disturb them, instead he watched the waterfall, wondering where the Sixth Elder had diverted the water from to create this cascade.
Before long, Yun Tianqiong’s True Yuan was depleted, and he gasped as he clasped his fists, “Thank you for the sparring session, Junior Sister!”
Ling Xi nodded slightly, her gentle and graceful demeanor inspiring pity.
“This won’t do, it’s over just like that?”
Li Cheng appeared, shaking his head with a smile.
“Greetings, Master!” Both disciples saluted in unison.
Li Cheng nodded, “You both have strong comprehension skills, it’s time to pass on the cultivation techniques to you!”
Yun Tianqiong’s eyes lit up, “Master, are you going to pass on the Xuanqing Immortal Scroll to us?”
Each peak has its own cultivation technique, considered a fundamental technique of the peak, which can’t be found in the Scripture Repository.
The Xuanqing Immortal Scroll of the Eighteenth Peak is only available for True Disciples, and they were all Li Cheng’s True Disciples.
“The Inner Gate’s Eighteen Peaks each have their own foundational cultivation technique, second only to the main peak’s Heaven Secret Immortal Scroll, capable of cultivating to the completion of the Tribulation Crossing Stage.”
“I did consider passing on the Xuanqing Immortal Scroll to you, but now it’s different.”
As he spoke, Li Cheng used his Spiritual Sense to condense the first nine levels of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture and imbued them directly into their minds.
“This Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture is a recent acquisition. Having looked it over, it’s more powerful than the sect’s techniques. Cultivate it well, and feel free to ask me if you have any questions.”
Better than the Heaven Secret Immortal Scroll?
The pair showed surprise, which quickly turned to emotion. Their master was really good to them, passing on the best techniques.
Of course, Li Cheng wanted to pass on the best; the greater the harvest his disciples reaped, the more Enlightenment chances he would receive as a reward. Without doubt, he had to pass on the best!
Yun Tianqiong had received a great fortune and his cultivation was sure to rise extremely quickly. Perhaps even before his own fifteen moments of Enlightenment were used up, he would bring a good number of rewards for himself.
As for Ling Xi, she had already grasped the true essence of the Medicine Divine Body. Given time, she would be able to condense the Medicine Spirit Body. This special physique was exceedingly fiendish; she could grow stronger simply by practising alchemy!
The scriptures Li Cheng had read recorded that the Medicine Spirit Body is the initial state of the Medicine Divine Body, which only requires continuous alchemy to improve one’s cultivation by utilizing Pill Qi and medicinal power.
And the way the Medicine Spirit Body practiced alchemy was even more fiendish: it involved directly receiving the medicinal materials into the Medicine Spirit Space, with just a bit of control to form the pills.
The scriptures did not detail this so-called Medicine Spirit Space, but Li Cheng speculated that it might be akin to a personal space, possibly a Divine Skill that comes with this special physique.
Once she condenses the Medicine Spirit Body, she will naturally understand.
“Thank you, Master, for your generous gift!”
The two did not rush to examine the techniques, but saluted in unison instead.
Li Cheng nodded and looked around, then said with a smile, “I will set up a Time Formation here. From now on, practice here!”
A few days ago, he had tried integrating the Time Law into a Formation, achieving the wondrous effect of altering the speed of time, but that covered the entire Eighteenth Peak, and the effect had been considerably weakened.
This time, covering only around a kilometer around the waterfall, the effect was sure to be stronger.
A Time Formation?
The two were astonished in their hearts. It was said that anything related to time was the domain of Immortals. Could it be that their master had already secretly crossed the Tribulation and become an Immortal?
That’s not right!
“Pill Sect’s Shentu Feng, accompanied by a group of Elders, has come to visit Elder Li!”
Just before Li Cheng could begin to set up the Formation, Shentu Feng’s voice came from the mountain’s base.
Li Cheng pondered briefly; they were probably here to say goodbye, after all, they had finished observing his alchemy.
“Fly up here!” Li Cheng said.
If they were to slowly walk up here, it would take too much time.
“Master, do we need to avoid them?” Yun Tianqiong asked, aware that this was a high-level exchange between the Alchemy Dao and their own sect master, fearing that his presence might be inappropriate.
“No need, they’re likely here to say goodbye,” Li Cheng replied casually.
Sure enough, the group from the Pill Sect swiftly approached without flying directly up to them, careful not to offend Li Cheng.
Shentu Feng, leading the group, stopped a few feet away and bowed respectfully, “We’ve come to see Elder Li!”
Li Cheng nodded, “What else brings you here?”
A smile appeared on Shentu Feng’s face as he said with emotion, “Observing Elder Li during alchemy has been immensely enlightening for us. We plan to return to our sect to retreat and cultivate. Before we leave, we especially came to bid farewell to you, Elder!”
With those words, the group bowed once more.
“Sect Leader Shentu is thoughtful,” Li Cheng responded calmly.
Shentu Feng stood up, his gaze sweeping over Yun Tianqiong and Ling Xi standing beside Li Cheng, and his eyes lit up!
Pretending!
Li Cheng could tell at a glance that this guy was putting on an act.
“Are you two Elder Li’s esteemed disciples? Our visit was in a hurry, and we didn’t have time to prepare suitable gifts for you both; I truly feel embarrassed about it,” he said.
As he spoke, Shentu Feng took out two basketball-sized eggs from his storage ring, “A long time ago, when a senior from our Pill Sect descended to the Lower World, he brought back these two Spirit Beast Eggs. Now, seeing you both, I suddenly realize that these eggs must be fated for you!”
A subtle twitch appeared at the corner of Li Cheng’s mouth. What a gift to give, quite an artful gesture indeed!
Trying to please him by first pleasing those close to him, eh?
Not bad!
The two Spirit Beast Eggs had a concealed aura, making it difficult to discern which Spirit Beasts they were from, but inside was a very robust life force, highlighting their extraordinariness.
Without waiting for a response, Shentu Feng, wrapping the eggs in his True Yuan, promptly placed them before the two disciples.
Without Li Cheng’s approval, the disciples didn’t dare to accept and could only look towards him.
Li Cheng nodded, “Sect Leader Shentu has good intentions, take them.”
Only then did the two disciples bow in unison and accept the Spirit Beast Eggs after offering thanks.
Shentu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, “Elder Li, we have imposed upon you these past few days. We hope for your understanding!”
Li Cheng nodded slightly without saying much more.
They had already regarded him as a lofty figure; saying too much might damage that image.
“Elder Li, we’ll take our leave now. If you find the time, please be sure to visit us at our Pill Sect!” Shentu Feng led the group in another respectful bow.
Li Cheng nodded again, “Certainly!”
Having received Li Cheng’s acceptance of their gifts, Shentu Feng and his group left with their hearts full of satisfaction
With Li Cheng’s mastery in Alchemy Dao, accepting their gifts was certainly a good omen!
“Master, they deliberately came to give gifts, right?” Yun Tianqiong passed over the Spirit Beast Eggs and asked.
“Indeed, these folks who have lived for hundreds, even thousands of years, are all cunning. In the future, be wary when you encounter them,” Li Cheng said as he glanced at the two Spirit Beast Eggs.
Meanwhile, Shentu Feng and his party, having traveled far from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, finally exhaled a long sigh of relief!
A smile stretched across Shentu Feng’s face, “This trip was well worth it!”
Ning Qianqiu pondered a while and then expressed with emotion, “Today, I’ve learned another lesson from the Sect Leader; the art of gift-giving is indeed profound and intricate!”
In the past, he felt proud of his successful gift-giving, but now he realized that his success was merely because Li Cheng had been interested in that brick.
The true art of gift-giving, it seemed, was best exemplified by the Sect Leader.
Shentu Feng turned to Ning Qianqiu, his smile gradually fading, “First Elder, since that brick you gave was an Array Pattern Stone, it suggests that the Loose Immortal who asked you to do alchemy was extraordinary.. Isn’t it time to come clean?”
