Chapter 15: Five Elemental Spiritual Seeds
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Sky Devouring Secret Technique is my foundation. I’d have to crystalize Sky Devouring Spiritual Seed the soonest to ensure a certain level of self-defense. My cultivation now is still lacking!” Ling Xiao mumbled to himself.
Although he had reached ninth tier Pulse Unsealing Boundary, he had depended on the Purple Thunder from Longevity Sect’s Protection Formation to defeat Deng Yalin and Deng Tiange.
With Ling Xiao’s current capabilities, he could annihilate True Qi Boundary masters but it would be a different story when faced with Spiritualization Boundary masters.
‘This Longevity Supreme Scripture very much suits Xue Wei’s constitution, I can pass it on to her! Nangong Xuan has a good endowment, so he should be able to breakthrough to Celestial Boundary in no time if he cultivated Longevity Supreme Scripture. He would serve a great right-hand man then!’
Ling Xiao deliberated in his mind. He may have his past life’s memory but resuming to the height of where he was would not be an easy feat. He dared not underestimate the masters in this world, and only by taking one step at a time to lay out the groundwork could he go further.
‘Connecting all thirty-six meridians has only brought my ninth tier Pulse Unsealing Boundary to a tiny cycle state. The true Pinnacle stage in ancient times was through connecting three hundred and sixty meridians to complete a circulatory. By getting my hands on the Five Elemental Spiritual Seeds, not only can I achieve Pulse Unsealing Boundary’s Pinnacle stage, but I can also crystalize a Sky Devouring Spiritual Seed that would enable me to unleash all tactics within the Sky Devouring Secret Technique!’ Ling Xiao thought to himself before he turned to leave the dimension. He then proceeded to carefully store the old painting.
The old painting might not carry any firepower but it housed a gigantic dimension that could be used as a warehouse.
Most importantly, it was the only item left behind by Jin Se.
Walking out of the Scripture Library, Ling Xiao hurled the old Longevity Supreme Scripture to Nangong Xuan.
“This is the Longevity Supreme Scripture that contains the Supreme’s true meaning of legacy. I have used it once and that leaves three more times that the legacy can be passed down. Sect Leader may arrange the disciples to inherit this legacy!” Ling Xiao casually remarked.
“This is the Longevity Supreme Scripture?!”
Nangong Xuan caught the book but after hearing Ling Xiao’s words, he was so shocked that he jumped. In turn, it caused his hands to tremble and he almost dropped the ancient scroll. He glanced around with wary before he carefully kept it away. His face revealed his shocked state.
It seemed like Ling Xiao had indeed inherited Sky Devouring Supreme’s legacy or else he would not have been able to retrieve Longevity Supreme Scripture from the Scripture Library.
Nangong Xuan was not the least bit jealous. In fact, he was overjoyed and thrilled.
He was beginning to trust that in Ling Xiao’s hands, Longevity Sect would return to its former glory as in the ancient times.
“It is embarrassing that the Longevity Sect Leader is only at Grandmaster Boundary. Do your best in cultivating Longevity Supreme Scripture and I believe you’ll reach Celestial Boundary or even Aristocracy Boundary in no time!” Ling Xiao said.
“Hahaha… With Longevity Supreme Scripture, I have confidence that I’ll breakthrough to Celestial Boundary within a year. Ling Xiao, you have performed an extraordinary deed. The sect wishes to reward you. Tell me, what do you want? We’ll give you anything as long as the sect has it!”
At the sweep of his sleeves, Nangong Xuan laughed heartily. “Great, you can first fork out a million superior Spiritual Stones for me to cultivate,” Ling Xiao casually commented.
“Ah… A million superior Spiritual Stones, isn’t that a bit too much?”
Nangong Xuan revealed a painful expression on his face.
“Ling Xiao, a million superior Spiritual Stones is worth about a few years of the sect’s consumption. You won’t need that many superior Spiritual Stones for Pulse Unsealing Boundary. How about if I first give you ten thousand superior Spiritual Stones?”
Ling Xiao cast him a side glance. “How frugal. The Longevity Sect disciples ten thousand years ago had cultivated with Spiritual Crystals, no one would use Spiritual Stones. Fine, send ten thousand superior Spiritual Stones my way. I’ll also need Five Elemental Spiritual Seeds as well as the peerless type. Do you have them?”
Nangong Xuan took out ten thousand superior Spiritual Stones which were absorbed and kept inside the old painting at the flicker of its radiance.
Nangong Xuan was again surprised as he did not think Ling Xiao owned a dimensional treasure.
“A Five Elemental Spiritual Seed and a peerless one at it? You’re asking for a lot!” Nangong Xuan added, “We have a lot of inferior and moderate spiritual seeds but the sect only has a drop of Black Heavy Water, a peerless water elemental spiritual seed and none of the other four elements!”
“Only a drop of Black Heavy Water?”
Although this was the result that Ling Xiao had anticipated, he still felt a little disappointed.
He needed all five elements of peerless spiritual seeds to crystalize Sky Devouring Spiritual Seed and in turn, to materialize Sky Devouring Secret Technique. It seemed as if collecting all five was not going to be easy.
“However, I know that there’s news on a Diversified Golden Lotus Fire in Demonic Beast Mountains!” Nangong Xuan continued.
“Diversified Golden Lotus Fire? This is the highest grade among all universal spiritual fires. Great, tell me where is it!”
Stirred with emotions, Ling Xiao’s eyes lit up.
“The Diversified Golden Lotus Fire is within the Demonic Beast Mountains. It’s too dangerous to go yourself given your cultivation is low. What do you say if I were to send an Elder to help you retrieve it?” Concerned, Nangong Xuan suggested.
“It’s alright. I’ll be able to train myself if I head to Demonic Beast Mountains. I don’t need anyone to accompany me there. You’ll only need to tell me the location.”
Seeing Ling Xiao held up his views, Nangong Xuan could do nothing else but to inform him of the location.
After leaving the Scripture Library, an attendant led Ling Xiao to the Saint’s residence.
As Longevity Sect’s Saint, he held a position higher than the Elders. The residence was naturally magnificent but Ling Xiao did not take a liking to huge palaces. Instead, he chose a spot where there was a waterfall, lake and bamboo forest in Longevity Sect to build a bamboo house.
With no one daring to put up any delays, the Longevity Sect’s attendants completed building the bamboo house in half a day.
Ling Xiao named the bamboo house as Jin Se Pavilion. Apart from Ling Xiao, no one knew the meaning to Jin Se.
The often mind-blanking maid, Xue Wei still could not believe that her young master had become Longevity Sect’s Saint in such a short amount of time.
“Young master, am I dreaming?”
Xue Wei gazed at the beautiful bamboo house. Her long lashes flickered over her huge eyes that were filled with disbelief.
“This is not a dream, Xue Wei. Your young master is now the Saint of Longevity Sect. No one will dare lay a finger on you!” Ling Xiao affectionally caressed Xue Wei’s head.
“Young master sure is great!”
Xue Wei’s eyes spoke of endless adoration.
“Young master, I wish to cultivate too. Then, I’ll be able to protect young master, unlike before when I too powerless to do anything but could only watch as young master was bullied…” the young girl spoke in a low tone while she extended her tender fist.
“Xue Wei, there’s a lot of hardships that come with cultivation. There will also be times when it can be life-threatening. You can’t imagine the cruelty of this world. Are you still willing to cultivate?” Ling Xiao smiled.
“I’m… I’m not afraid! I’m not afraid of the hardships or the danger. I’m not afraid as long as I’m able to protect young master!” Xue Wei’s eyes twinkled of persistence.
“Great, if that’s the case, I’ll pass the Longevity Supreme Scripture down to you!”
Smiling fondly, Ling Xiao decided to pass the Longevity Supreme Scripture to Xue Wei. He had examined Xue Wei and found that she possessed endowments better than Deng Yalin. Hence, she was suited to cultivate Longevity Supreme Scripture.
