Chapter 141: 5: Helping Zhao Ya and Others with Their Practice

Chapter 141: Chapter 5: Helping Zhao Ya and Others with Their Practice
 

Over the next two days, to avoid trouble, Zhang Xuan neither went out nor received guests, and Yu Xiaoyu and others were also granted cultivation techniques for the Physique Realm and settled down to push for higher realms.

On the third day, the last bone was finally forged, and at this moment, every single bone in Zhang Xuan’s body shone crystal clear like jade, hard as iron. If he could take them out, they would undoubtedly clang like steel upon being struck.

Peak of Jade Bone Realm!

Although his strength did not increase, remaining at 99 horsepower and unable to break through, the improvements in his cultivation brought about significant progress in response, agility, and speed. Strictly in terms of combat power, he was more than twice as strong as he was two days earlier.

Should he encounter the Liu Clan Head again, he could effortlessly crush him with just one finger. Even against Dean Lu Mingrong, who had advanced to the Divine Soul Realm, he could hold his own in battle!

Of course, this was without utilizing the Pathos of Heaven swordsmanship. Once he used it, even City Lord Yu, who was at the Dharma Form Realm, might not be able to contend against him. With such strength, he truly stood at the pinnacle of Baiyan City.

“Go and discuss it with the others…”

With a thought, he returned to the new world.

Nie Lingxi, Luo Qiqi, Zhao Ya, Zheng Yang, and the others were all seated together in earnest discussion.

“The Source World is fraught with dangers, and it seems even Empyrean Kong shi has fallen into perilous straits. Are you sure you want to follow?”

Zhang Xuan looked around the group.

“Of course, we will go wherever Teacher is. Don’t worry, Teacher, we will strive to catch up with you and not hold you back…”

Zhao Ya nodded.

At this moment, the girl’s Pure Yin constitution was fully activated, exuding a bracing charm that mingled softness and spiritedness, creating a unique impression on others.

“Yes, with Teacher’s guidance, we believe that we can definitely carve out a new world for ourselves!” Zheng Yang thumped his spear on the ground and spoke resolutely.

“Teacher, the more dangerous it is, the more we want to go. Only then can we support each other. Our abilities might be far inferior to yours, Teacher, but with effort, we’re certain we can be of help…”

Yuan Tao said.

“This…”

Zhang Xuan looked helplessly towards Nie Lingxi who was not far away, a bit at a loss as to how everyone still held such an attitude even after he explained the situation in the Source World.

The once Carefree Heavenly Emperor, Nie Lingxi, smiled gently, “As your wife, of course I’ll go wherever you go! Don’t even think about leaving me behind. Besides, if Empyrean Kong shi could go, why couldn’t I? Are you questioning my strength?”

“I’m going too! The Master Teacher Continent abandoned me once, but this time it definitely won’t work!”

Humphing softly, Luo Qiqi pouted, “If you really don’t take me, I’ll just sneak there myself, using the same passage you took. You know my personality; once I say I’ll do it, I definitely will!”

Seeing that they were all equally determined, Zhang Xuan could only nod, “Since you all wish to go, then let’s go together. However… you must first enter the Suspended Realm. There is plenty of Origin qi here. Once you have adapted to it and made some progress in your cultivation, it will be safer to enter the Source World.”

With more people comes greater strength. The Source World was indeed dangerous, but having come together from the Master Teacher Continent, they had already faced countless adversities. This level of crisis was nothing in comparison.

Furthermore, a higher world offered the chance to challenge even greater strengths, making it a new experience for everyone.

“Alright, we will follow your arrangements…”

Knowing his concerns, Nie Lingxi did not object this time.

Zhang Xuan nodded, waved a hand, and everyone disappeared from the room, appearing in the Suspended Realm the next moment.

The current Suspended Realm had already exceeded billions of kilometers in diameter, with pillars formed by Heavenly Mandate Vitality supporting the space, and countless streams of Origin qi cascading down through the primordial energy Furnace.

Zhang Xuan formed a sword with his fingers and pointed towards the sky.

In an instant, a vast black hole appeared above the Suspended Realm, and countless streams of unrefined Origin qi fell, enveloping everyone within.

Feeling the onslaught of the Origin qi, everyone turned pale and couldn’t help but step back.

Even though they had been forewarned about the fearsome nature of Origin qi, the actual contact still left them feeling oppressively uncomfortable, like land animals thrown into water, struggling to breathe.

“This is Origin qi!”

Zhang Xuan smiled slightly, “I will now help you establish your Source Pools and then pass on the cultivation techniques to you. Once you can cultivate, you will be able to adapt…”

Celestial Gods who could not find a Source Pool, Zhang Xuan, with the power of a creator, helped them carve out new spaces. This method had been tested on Sun Qiang and proved to be quite effective.

After a little more than an hour, everyone had their Source Pools and had ignited their furnaces with the help of primordial energy.

In igniting Nie Lingxi, Zhao Ya, and others’ cauldrons, there was no need to be concerned about primordial energy, so their cauldrons had all reached Emperor-level at the very least! In other words, they could easily absorb over a thousand strands of Origin qi daily.

Moreover, the “Source Pools” formed by the space created had tremendously large capacities, each able to accommodate an immense amount of Origin qi, surpassing even Saint-tier!

Thus, though they had only just begun their practice and had just come in contact with Origin qi, in terms of talent alone, this group undoubtedly stood at the very pinnacle of the Source World.

With such innate abilities, coupled with the Heaven’s Path Divine Art, their so-called progress would likely be as simple as eating and drinking.

Having completed all this, Zhang Xuan finally let out a sigh of relief.

By now, the Heavenly Mandate Vitality he had just obtained from the Liu Clan Head was completely exhausted, not a single strand remaining. His once comfortable life was in poverty again…

With a flick of his finger, several secret manuals appeared in the hands of each person, which were the methods of practice from the Physique Realm to the Jade Bone Realm.

“You all practice slowly, I’m going to check things out…”

After giving all necessary instructions, Zhang Xuan vanished from the spot and reappeared in the courtyard of his residence in the next moment.

As he walked out of the courtyard, Sun Qiang came up to greet him.

“How is it? Did you find a way to make money?”

Since receiving the identity token from City Lord Yu, Sun Qiang had been running around for the past few days looking for ways to make money, and by all accounts, he should have found something by now.

“There are some methods to make money, but they all require the young master to make an appearance…”

As Sun Qiang spoke, he took a piece of paper out of his pocket and handed it over.

Zhang Xuan casually opened it and saw a dense list of content on it.

“Repair the damaged secret manual of the ‘Xuanlong Palm’ left by the sixth School Head of Baiyan Academy. This cultivation method has been destroyed for three hundred years, and many have tried to restore it, but in the past two hundred years, countless experts have attempted and ultimately failed. The reward is 2 million Origin Currency.”

“Sun Chengyou, a wandering cultivator in the southern city, is rich but was unfortunately injured by a Primordial Beast in his youth, his life hanging by a thread. If you can help treat him, you can receive a reward of 1 million Origin Currency.”

“The silent chamber at Yis Travel has a Luo Yu Flower that emits a fragrance which calms the mind and speeds up cultivation. As a result, their silent chamber is very sought after. But half a year ago, the flower wilted and the fragrance faded, losing the power to pacify. If it can be healed, a reward of 1 million Origin Currency can be obtained.”

“In Golden Leaf Canyon of Huaiyuan Mountain, a Peak of Jade Bone Realm Primordial Beast has emerged. If it can be slain, Baiyan Medicine Shop will reward 1 million Origin Currency as payment…”

“Slay the great thief Luo Qingkong to receive a reward of 2 million Origin Currency! Luo Qingkong, a peak strength of Jade Bone Realm, is adept at escaping and once stole the ‘Cuckoo Bright Moon Painting’ from the Han Yuan Royal Family…”

…

Zhang Xuan’s eyes swept over the list, knowing that any task recorded by Sun Qiang—if accomplished—would bring in at least a million each. Such items were densely packed and numbered more than ten on the entire piece of paper.

“It seems I have underestimated Baiyan City…”

Previously, he thought it might take ages to earn 30 million Origin Currency, but now it seemed that, true to its status as a major city with a population over ten million, there were plentiful opportunities to make money if one seriously looked.

“Which one should I choose first?”

As his eyes settled on the list and he carefully read through it twice, Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment before shaking his head, “If there’s money to be made, there’s no need to fret over it, just go through them one by one!”

The circumstances laid out on the paper might be difficult for others to handle, but for him, they were trivial matters.

If they were all similar and hard to choose from, then he might as well solve them one after another!

Setting his sights on the first one, he asked Sun Qiang to lead the way and stepped out of the door.

“The first one is in Xuanlong Pavilion, within the academy. Would the young master like to disguise himself? After all, there are just too many people who want to become your disciples…”

Sun Qiang asked with a smile.

“No need, I already asked Dean Lu Mingrong to explain yesterday. Other than Yu Xiaoyu, Liu Mingyue, and Hong Yi, I will consider letting some students sit in on my lectures. But as for whom I’ll accept or reject, I want to make my own choice. Anyone who comes forward and nominates themselves will only earn my dislike, and I will not accept any of them,” Zhang Xuan responded.

Sun Qiang’s eyes lit up.

This was an open strategy.

In the past few days, the young master had made quite a stir, and the whole Baiyan City knew about it. Countless people were eager to become his disciples. If he truly left them unchecked, those who knelt outside and pleaded might number in the thousands.

Would he accept them or not?

If he did accept them, he would not be satisfied, and if he rejected them, others would think he was too haughty.

But by directly announcing he would accept students to sit in on his lectures, and that he would make his own choice, it indicated that everyone had a chance. In this case, coming over and begging would be like digging their own graves.

Therefore, even if they knew, he might recruit at any time, they would still be full of anticipation and dare not act rashly.

Indeed, with this information out, as he walked through the campus, many students looked excited, yet no one dared to intrude. Some… just put on various performances.

“Look quickly, Teacher Zhang is looking this way! I didn’t mess up my hair just now, did I?”

“Your hair is fine, it’s just that your makeup is all caked on!”

“…”

A young clan scion was practicing his skills, with his followers by his side. Seeing Zhang Xuan pass by, he leaped up and grabbed his follower, smashing his head over.

“Big brother, what are you doing…” the follower was bewildered.

“Since you want to fight, I will oblige…” the scion declared loudly, simultaneously whispering, “Don’t chat nonsense, strike back quickly, let me show off the skills I just learned…”

The follower got the hint, roared angrily, and met him head-on.

The two engaged in battle.

A moment later, when the fight ended, the scion looked towards the departing figure with excitement, “Was my skill execution standard? Did Teacher Zhang see me?”

Touching his swollen face, the follower wept, “I don’t know if he saw you, but I sure can’t see you anymore…”
