Chapter 432: The Seas Have Changed, But Old Friends Are Still Here
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hu Yuan was shocked by the other party’s words. A second ago, he wanted to possess him, and now, he wanted to take him as his disciple. Even though he could tell that the other party was joking, this sudden reversal was beyond his expectations.
However, when he thought of the other party’s unfathomable strength and his talents, he felt confident.
He did not step forward and kept his distance. He asked cautiously, “If you want to take me as your disciple, aren’t you going to introduce yourself?”
The white-robed man was naturally Jiang Changsheng. In the face of Hu Yuan’s question, he waved his horsetail whisk and pretended to be mysterious as he said, “My name is indefinable. I am merely a carefree Daoist in the mortal world. Since we are destined to be master and disciple, I came here to find you.”
Hearing this, Hu Yuan let down his guard. After all, he did not have anything worthy of being conspired against. The other party looked so young, so he should not be thinking about his body.
He immediately walked over and half-knelt in front of Jiang Changsheng. He cupped his fists and said, “Disciple Hu Yuan pays respect to master!”
Even though there were many fellow Daoists in the Mental Wander Realm who contributed their cultivation methods, most of the methods he came into contact with were unranked. He indeed needed a master who could teach him by example.
Jiang Changsheng waved his sleeve and turned around. “Disciple, aren’t you bringing me to your house as a guest?”
Hu Yuan hastily stood up and led towards his house with his buffalo.
“Master, how powerful are you?”
“I can’t say, I can’t say.”
“Are you an immortal from the Heavenly Court?”
“Not really, but there are some links.”
Hu Yuan asked and Jiang Changsheng answered. The master and disciple walked further and further away on the road.
In the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Changsheng retracted his gaze and smiled in satisfaction.
In this life, he blessed Wang Chen with 100 million incense points. Because of this, he was an absolute genius in cultivation. He had spent more on Wang Chen than on Hua Jianxin when she was reincarnated. However, Mu Lingluo later obtained the fate of an immortal god, so in terms of overall expenses, Wang Chen still could not compare.
When teaching Wang Chen, Jiang Changsheng naturally used a clone. It was impossible for him to use his main body to accompany him.
He closed his eyes and began to move the Kunlun Field to increase the distance between him and the Divine Martial Realm. He also wanted to stay away from the spatial rift created by the Dao Slaying Finger to avoid being tracked down by the Divine Martial Realm.
After tossing and turning for a long time, Jiang Changsheng finally began to enter seclusion and continued to comprehend the Karma Dao.
Wang Chen’s karma in this life was simple. Jiang Changsheng could see his future at a glance, but as he interfered, Wang Chen’s karma began to change and so would his future.
The Karma Dao was never fixed. It was constantly changing. There would always be some forces that could influence karma.
Even though his attention was focused on the Karma Dao, his cultivation did not slow down. The Taiyi Dao Fruit would automatically absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and accumulate magic power. Furthermore, his research on the Karma Dao was also due to the mental cultivation method of the Dao Technique.
As he grasped the Golden Core Great Dao, he had more thoughts.
Spring passed and autumn came. Time flew by.
After Bai Qi recovered from her injuries, she went to the Lower Realm and returned in less than a month. From then on, he began to train seriously.
On the other hand, Mu Lingluo often went out, and she began to prepare for the Immortal Peach Convention.
The culture of cultivation in the Heavenly Court had always been at its peak. Almost every day, someone would transcend the tribulation, and it was the same in the human world. As more and more cultivators appeared, in order to be different from the Martial Dao, a cultivation world was created. It was not a real independent world, but a layer separated from the secular world.
Not everyone could cultivate immortality, and more people continued to practice martial arts. In the beginning, the two forces were on equal footing.
However, as time passed, various contradictions arose between the Martial Dao and the Immortal Dao, making it difficult to mediate.
The Heavenly Court advocated the Immortal Dao, so they were naturally biased towards it. They were also working hard to promote Daoism. More and more Immortal Gods descended to the Lower Realm and went down to the Kunlun Field to preach the Dao, leading mortals to enter the Immortal Dao. This led to sects sprouting like bamboo shoots after a rain.
The sun had just risen in the east. The sunlight streaked across the mountain forest that was filled with cold air and snow before landing on the cliff.
Jiang Changsheng’s clone sat on the edge of the cliff. Sunlight sprinkled on him, as if covering him with a layer of seven-colored light.
Hu Yuan, who was already twenty years old, flew over on his sword. Looking at his master’s figure from afar, he was in a trance.
Every time he saw his master, he would be stunned. His master had an indescribable temperament that made him yearn for it. He also wanted to nurture such a temperament.
This was an immortal!
The twenty-year-old Hu Yuan had a tall and straight physique. Even though he was dressed in plain clothes, his vitality was different from ordinary people, especially his bright eyes.
He landed beside Jiang Changsheng and asked with a smile, “Master, why did you send me here today?”
Ever since he brought his master home as a guest five years ago, his master had been living in seclusion deep in the mountains and did not meet anyone.
However, his master’s appearance had also informed the villagers that he, Hu Yuan, was really cultivating. This incident had even alarmed many nearby cities.
Jiang Changsheng did not open his eyes and casually said, “For the past five years, I have only guided you in your cultivation. I have yet to really teach you any cultivation method.”
Hearing this, Hu Yuan’s eyes lit up and he became excited.
“I will teach you the Golden Core Great Dao. At the small success stage, you can pluck the stars and shift the moon. You can jump out of Yin and Yang. At the large success stage, you can live as long as heaven and earth. Are you willing to learn
“Yes! However, is it really that powerful, master?”
Hu Yuan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Not to mention being immortal, just the phrase ‘pluck the stars and shift the moon’ made him yearn for it.
That was definitely a skill that only immortals could use!
Jiang Changsheng did not answer and began to recite the Golden Core Great
Dao. When Hu Yuan heard it, he immediately sat down and listened attentively. His talent for immortal cultivation was extremely outstanding and he had a photographic memory. He could memorize it after listening to it once.
The more Hu Yuan listened, the more apprehensive he was. What a profound cultivation method!
Even though he had yet to train, it was much more exquisite than the cultivation methods circulating in the Mental Wander Realm.
His master must be from the Heavenly Court, and his status was not low!
The Immortal Dao was born from the Dao Ancestor. At present, the Heavenly Court was the main source of the Immortal Dao. Naturally, he would think that way.
As for his master being the Dao Ancestor, he did not dare to think about it and felt that it was impossible.
He was already lucky enough to have picked up such a powerful master. How could the Dao Ancestor teach him personally?
In the Mental Wander Realm, he had seen the elegance of too many prodigies. His talent was very strong, but it was only comparable to ordinary immortal cultivators.
The Golden Core Great Dao came with many spells, escape techniques, and Divine Powers. It was huge and complicated. Hu Yuan began to go up the mountain every day. Half a year later, he directly moved deep into the mountains to cultivate with his master.
Time flew by and thirty years passed.
The fifty-year-old Hu Yuan still retained his appearance as a twenty-year-old. As someone who cultivated the Golden Core Great Dao, his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds and had already reached the Divine Transformation Realm. Even he found this speed unbelievable. He had never heard of such cultivation speed in the Mental Wander Realm.
It had been thirty years since he left the mountain.
On this day.
Jiang Changsheng stood up from the cliff. When Hu Yuan heard the commotion, he opened his eyes.
Looking at his master under the sunlight, Hu Yuan’s heart trembled. He had a bad feeling.
“Wang Chen, it’s time for master to leave. You will have to rely on yourself in the future.’
Jiang Changsheng looked at the magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers in the horizon and said softly. Cold mist surrounded the mountains and forests for thousands of miles, just like a paradise. There was a sense of loneliness and seclusion.
Hu Yuan hastily stood up and asked, “Master, where are you going? Can’t you bring me with you?”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “You have your family, so it’s not that easy to give them up. The world is beyond your imagination. If you leave with me, the next time you come back, your old friend will be in the soil.’
Hu Yuan was moved when he heard that. He suddenly thought of his parents and siblings. Thirty years was a short time for him, but for mortals…
At that moment, he suddenly had the strong urge to go down the mountain and return home. However, since his master was about to leave, he could only restrain his thoughts.
“Master, where should I look for you in the future?” Hu Yuan asked as his eyes involuntarily reddened.
Speaking of which, Jiang Changsheng had been with him for the longest time, even longer than his family.
Jiang Changsheng waved his horsetail whisk and turned his head with a smile.
“Silly disciple, it’s not that easy to meet me. I hope that one day, I can hear Wang Chen’s name resound throughout the three realms.”
“Before I leave, I will teach you the Seventy-Two Changes of the Earthly Fiend.”
After saying that, he waved his right hand and a breeze blew towards Hu Yuan. His consciousness instantly became absent-minded.
He did not know how long had passed. Perhaps it was an instant or several years.
Hu Yuan suddenly woke up and realized that he was still standing at the edge of the cliff. However, he could not see his master, so many memories surfaced in his mind.
Seventy-Two Changes of the Earthly Fiend!
Hu Yuan took a deep breath and shouted a few times. When he did not get a response from his master, he understood that he had left.
“My name resounding throughout the three realms…”
Hu Yuan muttered to himself. He suddenly thought of a huge matter in the Mental Wander Realm.
The Dao Ancestor wanted to pick a leader of the Earth Immortals!
If he could become the leader of the Earth Immortals, would his name shake the three realms?
Perhaps his master was also working hard for the position of the leader of the Earth Immortals. At that time, wouldn’t it be great if he could compete with his master for the position?
Thinking of this, Hu Yuan smiled and the sadness of parting in his heart dissipated.
He leaped up and condensed a cloud under his feet before riding it down the mountain.
Within the Purple Cloud Palace.
Mu Lingluo walked into the hall and saw that Bai Qi was still training. She shook her head and laughed. She did not expect this guy to last so long. She walked to the furnace and sat down to prepare to concoct a pill.
At that moment, Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, it meant that a hundred years had passed. A hundred years of enlightenment was equivalent to an hour of drinking tea for him. The speed of time was vividly reflected in his cultivation.
Jiang Changsheng first calculated the strongest experts in various distances. After ensuring that the Kunlun Field was not in danger, he looked at the human world.
Hu Yuan had acknowledged him as his master for 100 years. After his clone left 70 years ago, Hu Yuan returned to the village. However, his parents passed away a few years later. This made him feel ashamed and think that he had not fulfilled his filial piety.
After staying at home for five years, he left some immortal cultivation methods and wandered around the Immortal Realm alone.
Due to the immortal cultivation technique he left behind, the Hu Family developed in the next few decades and became the overlord of the area.
For more than sixty years, Hu Yuan roamed the world in search of places with abundant spiritual energy. His cultivation had been increasing. With the Golden Core Great Dao and the Seventy-Two Changes of the Earthly Fiend, it was hard to defeat him even if one’s realm was higher than his. If he could not defeat him, he could still run.
This kid’s reputation had begun to rise!
Jiang Changsheng began to reminisce about the past. He thought of that courtyard many years ago. He taught his disciples, and Wang Chen swept the floor at the side. Occasionally, he would stop and listen to his stories and martial techniques.
How could it not be a blessing that his old friend was still here?
