109: Yuanying, here I come!

Night, cool as water.

The sparse moonlight, piercing through layers of branches and leaves, cast mottled shadows across the forest.

The bonfire crackled, adding the only touch of human warmth to the silent mountain forest.

Lu Yuchen idly poked the fire, his gaze occasionally drifting towards the figure sitting cross-legged not far away.

Li Huowang.

His fifth newly accepted Personal Disciple.

This kid had been sitting in front of that broken stone for four whole days.

Unmoving like a mountain through wind and rain.

A month ago, Lu Yuchen took this kid, who had just recovered from his madness, on a new round of "sightseeing."

Calling it travel was really just stealing or, to put it more elegantly, "robbing the rich to help the poor."

Of course, whose rich were robbed and whose poor were helped was a rather flexible matter.

But over this past month, Lu Yuchen's mood had been like a rollercoaster.

Exciting.

It was incredibly exciting!

Li Huowang's Cultivation speed was simply inhuman!

Lightning, fire, wood—three attributes!

In one month, from a Mortal with no strength to bind a chicken, he was forcefully washed by the Spiritual Qi within his body, directly breaking through Qi Refining, continuously Breakthroughing, and stepping into Foundation Establishment!

And that wasn't even the most outrageous part.

The most outrageous part was that this kid's Opportunities were as if they cost nothing; he could trip over a hundred-year Spirit Medicine while walking, urinate and uncover an Immortal Cave left by a predecessor, and even his snoring at night could attract Spirit Beasts eager to recognize him as their Master.

Lu Yuchen, as his Master, felt envious just watching, inwardly exclaiming, "Good heavens, my System is probably just aPackages for these Prodigy Disciples."

Relying on Li Huowang's "trash-picking" Opportunities over the past month, as well as Xiao Huohuo and Lu Nuannuan, who were both cultivating in Haizhou on Tianwu Continent and simultaneously Breakthroughing to the Purple Mansion, Lu Yuchen's cultivation finally experienced an explosive surge under the hundredfold return.

Golden Core ninth-level Peak!

He was just one step away from condensing a Nascent Soul and achieving the legendary "Martial Saint" realm spoken of by Martial Artists!

What surprised him even more was that Xiao Huohuo and Lu Nuannuan's Breakthroughs actually allowed him, as their Master, to obtain the phenomenon that Purple Mansion realm Cultivators dreamed of!

And it was double phenomena!

Sea of Extreme Flames, Chaos Nine Heavens!

If this were to spread to other Cultivators, they would all go mad.

At this moment, Lu Yuchen's gaze fell back on that stone.

It was the "wu cheng stone" he had used to deceive Lin Fan, Ling Ke'er, and the others.

An ordinary, broken stone he had casually picked up from the back mountain.

But now, this stone seemed a bit off.

From being utterly unremarkable at first, it now faintly emitted a trace of Daorhyme.

Especially under the moonlight, the patterns on the stone's surface seemed to slowly flow, like a living thing.

"This is eerie."

Lu Yuchen stroked his chin, muttering to himself.

"A broken stone, sat on by my precious Disciples in turns a few times, could it be... that it's really going to gain sentience?"

Just as he was lost in thought.

"Boom!"

An indescribable, profound aura suddenly erupted from within Li Huowang!

His entire body was surging with magical power, causing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to boil!

Epiphany!

Lu Yuchen's eyelids twitched, and he instantly became alert.

Here it comes, here it comes!

The familiar formula, the familiar taste!

Every single one of his Disciples was this kind of unreasonable "Dao Comprehension maniac."

Above Li Huowang's head, there was a faint sign of Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown and Five Qi Returning to the Origin.

His entire being seemed to merge with this world, entering a profound and ethereal state of clarity.

An hour passed quietly.

The aura around Li Huowang slowly subsided.

He suddenly opened his eyes!

Those eyes no longer held any madness, nor the previous clarity, but had transformed into an… indescribableCangsang and… indifference.

As if he had seen through eons of time and comprehended the Origin of the Great Dao.

"The Dao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things…"

He spoke slowly, his voice ethereal, not of the Mortal world.

"So… that's how it is."

As soon as his voice fell.

"Hahaha… Hahahahahahaha!"

Li Huowang suddenly let out a long laugh, looking up at the sky. His laughter was normal at first, but as he continued to laugh, it carried an uncontrollable madness and ecstasy!

He stood up, gesticulating wildly, running and jumping frantically through the forest, muttering incoherent words that Lu Yuchen couldn't understand but felt were incredibly impressive.

"Yin and Yang reverse, Five Elements return to one! The Major Thousand Worlds are all in my hands!"

"Heart fire rages, burning through eternity! Gods and demons avoid, only I am supreme!"

Lu Yuchen looked at his crazy appearance and couldn't help but shiver.

This kid, he didn't suffer Qi Deviation during his Dao Comprehension and go mad again, did he?

Just as he was about to step forward and slap the kid unconscious.

"Ding! Detected that the host's fifth Disciple, Li Huowang, in front of the "wu cheng stone," observed the ultimate principles of Heaven and Earth, combined with his three attributes, and self-created two supreme Immortal Cultivation Techniques!"

"《Major Thousand Record》: Can evolve three thousand Great Daos, encompassing everything, with infinite potential!"

"《Fire Robe Heart Sutra》: Uses heart fire as the Origin, refines the Divine Soul as the guide, can burn away all suffering in the world, directly pointing to the Origin of the Great Dao!"

"Triggering hundredfold return!"

"Host obtains: Complete version of Major Thousand Worlds Scripture》! Complete version of 《Samadhi True Fire Heart Refining Art》!"

Boom!

Two unimaginably vast torrents of profound information instantly surged into Lu Yuchen's mind!

Lu Yuchen: "…"

He was dumbfounded.

Again?!

It's self-created Cultivation Techniques again?!

And two at once?!

What kind of Prodigies are these Disciples, one better than the next!

"Master! Master! I've comprehended! I've comprehended everything!"

Li Huowang, who had been mad for a while, finally regained some clarity. He stumbled and crawled to Lu Yuchen, his face filled with fervent joy, and poured out the two "divine techniques" he had just comprehended, like spilling beans from a bamboo tube.

Lu Yuchen's expression after listening was truly a sight to behold.

Pervert!

Besides "pervert," he couldn't find another word to describe his fifth Disciple.

"Cough, cough."

He cleared his throat, forcefully suppressing the turbulent waves in his heart, and his face returned to that unperturbed, profound demeanor, beginning his most skilled "deception" endeavor.

"Not bad, not bad." He walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, an air of "everything is under control." "Huowang, ah, for you to possess such Comprehension Ability, as your Revered Master… I am greatly pleased."

"To think, back then, when I imprinted the true meaning of the Legacy of 《Major Thousand Record》 and 《Fire Robe Heart Sutra》 into this wu cheng stone, I knew that only a true heaven-blessed genius could comprehend them."

"You have not disappointed your Revered Master."

Upon hearing this, Li Huowang trembled even more with excitement, his gaze towards Lu Yuchen filled with extreme adoration and fervor!

So… all of this had been arranged by Revered Master long ago!

Revered Master's ability was truly heaven-reaching, unfathomable!

Just as Lu Yuchen was about to press on and properly educate this newly appointed "Cultivation Technique creator" about the "glorious history" of Tai Xuan Immortal Sect.

Rumble—!

The aura within his body could no longer be suppressed!

The majestic magical power accumulated at the Golden Core ninth-level Peak erupted like a breached dam!

A terrifying pressure, indicating an imminent Breakthrough from Golden Core to Nascent Soul and a step into a completely new life level, suddenly swept out!

"Oh no!"

Lu Yuchen's expression changed drastically.

He overdid it!

He was so busy deceiving his Disciple that he forgot he was holding back a big move himself!

This Nascent Soul tribulation, it seemed… was coming!
