Chapter 9, Transformation

At the incense hall, after paying homage to the ancestors under the witness of heaven and earth, Xiao Wenbing officially stepped into the ranks of those seeking immortality

Xiao Wenbing nodded repeatedly. The Mystic Symbol Gate, as the name suggests, is clearly a place that relies on spiritual symbols for sustenance. Is there really a need for further explanation

You are already of advanced age, but fortunately, you possess spiritual roots. Therefore, I shall directly lend you a helping hand, allowing you to comprehend the flow of energy. As for your future achievements, that will depend on your own fortune.

There is no need to consciously memorize; Xiao Wenbing can clearly feel the direction and path of the heat flow. Each movement evokes a sense of ethereal lightness.

Looking around, the old Taoist priest had long since vanished without a trace

A lively surge of heat coursed through the meridians of the body, as countless streams of spiritual energy surged in from the old Taoist's palms, resembling the relentless flow of a great river.

Just by looking at his expression, one can tell that the contents here are exceptionally precious

Sitting on the cushion in boredom, although that state is indeed very appealing, even the act of love can become tiresome if it lasts too long

Taking the jade bottle handed over by Zhao Feng, it resembled the jade bottle in the *illustrated* book, which was in the safe, but Xiao Wenbing naturally knew that the two were certainly different

Zhao Feng smiled faintly; this was not the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he had long since grown accustomed to it. As long as they spent more time together in the future, it would no longer seem strange.

Indeed, only disciples of the inner sect who have reached the Core Formation stage are allowed to leave the mountain. Those who are favored by the master and admitted to the inner sect are all exceptionally talented individuals. Generally speaking, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should be able to achieve Core Formation in about forty to fifty years.

As a teacher, I am known as Idle Cloud, a name that embodies the essence of an idle cloud and a wild crane. However, over the years, I have been caught up in mundane affairs, which has indeed betrayed the meaning of this name, alas

When he took the jade bottle from Zhao Feng, he clearly saw the intense envy in his eyes, as if the bottle contained some extraordinary treasure, making him reluctant to part with it

Ah, Zhao..." Xiao Wenbing hesitated for a moment, but he simply could not bring himself to utter the words "junior brother" no matter what.

"Wen Bing, since you have already come under my tutelage, allow me to introduce you to our teachings," the old Daoist said, unable to conceal the ecstatic and eager expression on his face. "Our sect is known as the Secret Symbol Sect, and we indeed possess unique skills in the art of talisman crafting. Looking across the vast land of Shenzhou, there are very few that can compare with our sect in this regard. In fact, one could say we are unparalleled."

With the experience from the last time, Xiao Wenbing was not worried and was about to temporarily stop when suddenly a surge of spiritual energy erupted from his dantian, directly transforming into supernatural power, completely replenishing the energy he had lost

Xiao Wenbing listened attentively; this statement was not easy to respond to. Aside from a silly smile, he did not express any of his own opinions.

Noticing the look of confusion on Xiao Wenbing's face, the man quickly introduced himself: "Sixth Senior Brother, I am Zhao Feng, the foremost disciple among the outer disciples of our sect. Although I have been favored by the Master and accepted as a named disciple, due to my limited aptitude, I have been unable to advance further and have always been unable to enter the inner sect. I have not made any significant contributions to the sect; I merely assist the Master and a few senior brothers with errands, doing some menial tasks that they disdain to undertake."

When he withdrew from that state of desire that was as intense as the desire for death, which was no less than the act of love, he glanced at the time on his phone and realized that a full day had passed since m.hetushu.com.com

As for the teacher and students, including you, there are a total of six disciples. Apart from the first disciple, Lu Jun, and the second disciple, Zhang Jie, who have already reached the Golden Core stage, the third disciple, Ming Mei, the fourth disciple, Yu Bosheng, and the fifth disciple, Chen Shujun, have also attained the Core Formation stage. Well... you have already met Lu Jun and Ming Mei; the other three are currently in seclusion. They will definitely emerge within two months, and at that time, I will introduce them to you.

Zhao Feng wore a苦脸, not knowing how to respond appropriately.

Upon exiting the quiet room, a middle-aged man in his fifties had been waiting outside for quite some time. As soon as he saw the figure, he immediately stepped forward and respectfully said: "The Sixth Senior Brother has come out"

The master said, once you have absorbed the properties of the Foundation Establishment Pill, you may return home for a while to settle some mundane matters, and then you will need to enter the mountains for arduous cultivation again, which is likely to take several decades

Filled with joy beyond expectations, Xiao Wenbing redoubled his efforts, gathering momentum, and immediately completed the progress bar to one hundred percent

The old Taoist brought him to a quiet room, which contained nothing but three meditation cushions.

Forty years may seem lengthy to ordinary people, and for some, it might even represent a lifetime. However, for those ancient beings who have devoted their lives to the pursuit of immortality, often for hundreds of years, it is but a fleeting moment.

How long has it been

Yes

He looked around to ensure no one was watching, then focused his mind and activated his abilities. A wave of energy re-emerged, beginning to scan from the vial.

Alright, I understand. Xiao Wenbing was just speaking casually in the first place

Turning around, she re-entered the quiet room under Zhao Feng's watchful gaze

He leaped up from the mat and unexpectedly discovered that his body felt much lighter. Moreover, after such a long time had passed, he surprisingly felt no hunger at all, which made him marvel in his heart.

If it reaches a certain level, Xiao Wenbing will be deeply moved. This being said, the items in that safe could one day also be created.

It is only natural to take a break in between

Furthermore, if the path of immortality were truly so easy to cultivate, Zhao Feng would have already become an inner sect disciple

Xiao Wenbing looked at him in surprise, thinking that at his age, he could very well be his father, so how could he still call himself the sixth senior brother

It turns out that one's spiritual power can actually be transformed into supernatural abilities. Although the current spiritual power is limited, as long as one perseveres, it will surely grow gradually

Within the dantian, I faintly sensed the presence of a mysterious force. Although it was not substantial, this should be the spiritual energy referred to by the old Taoist priest

It is unclear how much time has passed, but the old Taoist priest withdrew his palm, leaving only Xiao Wenbing sitting alone in meditation.

Sixth Senior Brother, Master said he is going to assist Elder Brother, so he will not be able to return for the time being. He has left you a Foundation Establishment Pill, which you should take and practice diligently in the inner chamber.

A progress bar habitually appeared in his mind; this time, it went relatively smoothly, reaching eighty percent before he began to feel a sense of powerlessness.

Four, fifty years? Hmm... It seems that cultivating immortality is a long-term endeavor. Xiao Wenbing remarked with a sense of lamentation: "Isn't there a way to do it faster?"

Ming Xiaowenbing sat cross-legged on a mat, placing his palm on his life gate, and lightly exclaimed: "Concentrate your mind and pay attention."
