Jiang Shinian was taken aback at first, then his face lit up with delight.
"Master... are you telling the truth?!"
Actually, he was a little worried that after becoming a disciple, his master would keep making him cultivate.
While this is good, he still hopes to become familiar with all the Spiritual Plant.
He would impart his knowledge to the people, just as the Emperor would.
This has always been Jiang Shinian's wish.
Zhen Yuanzi nodded slightly, reached out and gently rubbed Jiang Shinian's bull head, and said with a smile, "You have your own mission!"
As he spoke, Zhen Yuanzi's face became more solemn.
"As for your wish, rest assured, that day will come. Since you have become my disciple, I will naturally help you!"
Having said that, Zhen Yuanzi didn't wait for Jiang Shinian to speak.
A mysterious, clear light emanated from his fingertips.
Just a gentle touch.
A lustrous Jade Token plaque appeared out of thin air and slowly landed in Jiang Shinian's palm.
The Jade Token pendant felt warm and smooth to the touch, yet it was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
The body of the tablet is naturally engraved with the Daoist pattern of the word "", and on the back is a miniature image of Wuzhuang Temple, with the faint shadow of the earth calligraphy appearing in it.
As soon as Jiang Shinian touched the Jade Token, he felt a faint connection appear in his Primordial Spirit, as if it could penetrate the endless void at any moment and contact his master.
"This is the ' Earth Immortal Token '." Zhen Yuanzi stroked his beard and smiled, a hint of expectation in his eyes. "The holder of this token can communicate with me at any time. No matter where you are in the Primordial Wilderness, as long as you have a thought, I will appear before you!"
He paused, then looked into the distance.
"Alright, your parents were understandably worried about you because of the commotion just now, so they came to find you!"
Jiang Shinian followed Zhen Yuanzi's gaze and saw that Shaodian Shi and Nü Deng were hurrying towards them on the mountain path in the distance.
Because his cultivation level was still shallow, Jiang Shinian Taiqing see his expression.
But his actions and demeanor were full of worry.
The commotion caused by his apprenticeship ceremony was so great that it shook the entire mountain, no wonder his parents were so anxious.
"Go, go and explain to your parents!" Zhen Yuanzi chuckled, flicking his sleeve as a hazy, clear light began to emanate from his body. "After all, with his cultivation level, he can't see anything around me!"
As the last word fell, his figure gradually faded away.
A mountain breeze swept up a few green leaves, outlining a mysterious Dao Patterns in the air before they vanished without a trace.
Only that gentle, jade-like voice still echoed in Jiang Shinian's ears:
"Remember, you are my disciple. Don't worry too much; you can do whatever you want based on your own conscience!"
"I'm waiting for your good news!"
Jiang Shinian gripped the Jade Token tightly, gazing silently in the direction where his master had disappeared.
And just as Zhen Yuanzi disappeared...
Suddenly Shaodian Shi was in the distance, exclaimed "Eh!"
How did my own Stone Year suddenly appear?!
Fortunately, there seemed to be nothing wrong with their own stone year.
Soon, the Shaodian Shi couple appeared in front of Jiang Shinian.
"Kid, are you alright?!"
"Child, are you alright?" the couple asked in unison, their voices filled with worry.
"Father, Mother, I'm alright," Jiang Shinian said, touching the horns on his head and revealing a bright smile.
Looking at Jiang Shinian, who remained unchanged, Nü Deng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's alright, it's alright."
At the same time, they were also curious about what had happened just now.
After a moment's hesitation, the two voiced their doubts.
"Child, what happened here just now?"
Faced with their doubts, Jiang Shinian thought for a moment and decided to answer truthfully.
"The commotion just now was a sign from heaven and earth that my child was seeking a master."
"Huh?" The two Nü Deng were taken aback, exclaiming in surprise, "Becoming disciples?!"
At that moment, the two of them suddenly remembered.
It seems the Emperor was like that back then.
He was born with extraordinary phenomena, and subsequently became a disciple of the Antarctic Immortal Elder, the chief disciple of the Chan Teaching.
Could it be... that my own child is the same?!
With a slightly hoarse voice, Shaodian Shi asked with difficulty, "Is the immortal master you have apprenticed to a high-ranking disciple of the Chan Teaching?!"
Could it be... that his child also Human Emperor?!
"A disciple of the Chan Teaching? No!" Jiang Shinian shook his head. "The one I worship is the Sage Zhen Yuanzi of the Boundless Blessed Land of Longevity Mountain!"
"Not a disciple of the Chan Teaching?" Shaodian Shi, somewhat disappointed.
Was I just overthinking things?
Who is the Emperor? He is the one who deduces the calendar, establishes human relations, and is recognized by Heaven and Earth.
Although his own bull-headed child possesses some extraordinary abilities, it's ultimately... somewhat unrealistic for him to be compared to such beings.
Zhen Yuanzi Zhen Yuanzi is, Zhen Yuanzi is alright.
Um???
But he suddenly froze, staring blankly at his child.
"Child, child!" Shaodian Shi grabbed Jiang Shinian's arm with such force that it hurt him. "What did you just say? Your mother's been pinching me so much lately that my hearing is a bit off, I... I didn't hear you..."
His voice trembled, and his breathing became rapid.
The Nü Deng to the side finally realized what was happening and looked at Jiang Shinian with a nervous expression.
A mountain breeze carries the fragrance of flowers from afar.
Jiang Shinian couldn't help but smile when he saw his parents' expressions.
He took a deep breath and repeated, word by word:
"Father, Mother, the one who just took me as his disciple is the master of Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, the sage Zhenyuanzi of the Earthly Path Zhen Yuanzi!"
boom--!!!
At that moment, Shaodian Shi and Nü Deng were startled.
They were all so startled that their legs gave way and they fell to the ground with a thud.
In the blink of an eye, tears of excitement filled my eyes.
Shaodian Shi laughed heartily, unable to contain his excitement, and slapped the ground heavily beneath him, exclaiming, "My son! My son Human Emperor! My son Human Emperor!!!"
Seeing this, Jiang Shinian wanted to argue how he could possibly be compared to the Emperor.
But seeing how excited Shaodian Shi was...
He still couldn't say it aloud, but could only sincerely say it to Emperor Fuxi in his heart.
"My father was ignorant; please, Your Majesty, be magnanimous and not blame him."
After Shaodian Shi and Nü Deng calmed down a bit...
They and Jiang Shinian also returned to the Lieshan Tribe.
However, none of the three made a big fuss about it, and they did not tell the tribe about Jiang Shinian becoming a disciple of the sage Zhen Yuanzi.
It was just a random excuse.
He then returned home.
Jiang Shinian also began to become fascinated with the Spiritual Plant that Zhen Yuanzi had bestowed upon him.
Now that he has become a disciple of the master, he cannot bring shame to the master.
Even if his cultivation level isn't up to par, as long as he manages to get his hands on that Hundred Herbs Scripture, he'll be able to save face for his master.
With this feeling in mind.
Jiang Shinian was also constantly observing each and every Spiritual Plant.
Sometimes, they would even pick up those Spiritual Plant and take a bite.
Then I felt the changes within my body.
Then I recorded its effects and taste.
