Venerable White: I Want a Fresh Branch

Both Venerable White and Venerable Spirit Butterfly drew much inspiration from the 'Self-Healing Minor Spell' left behind by the Longevity Immortal Cheng Lin.

On the surface, this secret technique appears to be merely a magic for regenerating severed limbs. However, in reality, it contains the Dao of Longevity of Cheng Lin, the "Longevity Immortal"—the Dao of Longevity by "creating" oneself.

In fact, Venerable White and Venerable Spirit Butterfly had already completed the cultivation of this 'Self-Healing Minor Spell' several days ago. The next step was to find a way to extract Cheng Lin's Dao of Longevity from it, in order to prove their own 'Dao'. However, this process would not be easy and would take a long time.

The reason for allowing so much time is to wait for other fellow cultivators to master this spell.

It wasn't until today that True Lord Flood Dragon Overlord, True Lord White Crane, True Lord Dustfall, Master Profound Principle, Snow Wolf Cave Master, and Soft Feather all mastered this spell.

After mastering this self-healing technique, there are currently no places left to explore in the ruins left behind by the Longevity Immortal Cheng Lin.

"Spirit Butterfly Lingdie, it's time for us to leave." Venerable White stood up and said with a smile.

"That's exactly what I think too." Venerable Spirit Butterfly looked at her daughter with affection. After this enlightenment, Soft Feather was on the verge of 'advancing' and could attract Third-Grade Tribulation Lightning at any time, advancing to the Fourth-Grade Xiantian realm.

Therefore, Venerable Spirit Butterfly was also eager to take her back to Spirit Butterfly Island to help her set up the Tribulation-Transcending Formation.

Led by Venerable White and Venerable Spirit Butterfly, the group left the ruins of 'Cheng Lin, the Longevity Immortal'.

Then, Venerable White resealed and hid the entrance to the ruins. Although there were no magical treasures in this cave from the Old Heavenly Dao era, the image of the 'Great Power of Longevity Immortal preaching' inside was more precious than any magical treasure.

The Venerable White was considering whether he should bring all the fellow cultivators from the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group' to explore these ruins before he went into seclusion.

"Well then, Fellow Daoist Bai, Flood Dragon Overlord Ba, Fellow White Crane Bai He, Profound Principle Daoist Dustfall Chen, Fellow Daoist Tong Xuan, Fellow Snow Wolf Lang, I will first take my daughter back to Spirit Butterfly Island. We will meet again." Venerable Spirit Butterfly cupped his hands towards the crowd and said.

"Huh? Father, are we going back to Spirit Butterfly Island right away? Aren't we going to see Senior Song filming a movie? I'd like to play a female role in his movie." Soft Feather was a little reluctant when she heard that they had to go back to Spirit Butterfly Island immediately.

She finally got out of the house, and to be honest... she hasn't had enough fun yet!

"Tribulation Transcendence is important," Venerable Spirit Butterfly said calmly.

This reason was so compelling that Soft Feather had no way to refute it.

But she did not give up.

"Father, if Senior Song is still making movies when I successfully Tribulation Transcendence, can I go and play a female role?" Soft Feather blinked and asked her father in a cute way.

Venerable Spirit Butterfly smiled slightly and readily agreed.

[Once we return to Spirit Butterfly Island, I will send an elite film crew there to help Young Friend Song complete the filming in no time. That way, once Soft Feather successfully Tribulation Transcendence, I can take her to the cinema to see the movie Young Friend Song made.] Venerable Spirit Butterfly thought to himself.

Old ginger is spicier!

Soft Feather was delighted. "Then it's settled."

Then, she happily waved to everyone. "Well then, seniors, I'll be heading back to Spirit Butterfly Island with my father now. Until we meet again."

"Until we meet again Soft Feather," the Snow Wolf Cave Master said, waving his hand.

"No, no, Senior Snow Wolf. Something's not right!" Soft Feather said seriously.

Snow Wolf Cave Master: "?"

"Today, my Daoist name is Young Feather. Senior Snow Wolf, please call me Young Feather," Soft Feather said earnestly.

The Snow Wolf Cave Master paused for a moment, then nodded seriously as well. "That makes sense. Goodbye, Young Feather."

"Goodbye, Senior Snow Wolf," Soft Feather said with a giggle.

At this moment, apart from Venerable White, all fellow Daoists turned their gazes to Venerable Spirit Butterfly —365 Daoist titles indeed.

The Venerable Spirit Butterfly turned around, leaving everyone with a broad yet lonely silhouette.

Recently, the Venerable has noticed he might be getting some gray hair. Should he eat some sesame seeds to nourish himself when he gets home?

After Venerable Spirit Butterfly and Soft Feather left, the Snow Wolf Cave Master, True Lord Flood Dragon Overlord, Master Profound Principle, and True Lord Dustfall also took their leave one after another. These fellow Daoists all had powerful backers, big or small, and could not stay outside indefinitely. After finishing their 'Ruins Adventure,' they had to rush back to their respective sects to deal with various trivial matters.

Only the True Lord White Crane stayed close to Venerable White, asking, "Senior White, where do we go next?"

"Huh? White Crane, aren't you going back?" Venerable White asked.

"I will be following Senior White until you go into seclusion again, to repay your kindness." True Lord White Crane patted his chest. "So, if there's anything I can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask."

Warming the bed is also an option... Of course, True Lord White Crane wouldn't dare say that out loud.

"Oh." Venerable White nodded, then took out his phone and dialed Song Shuhang's number.

He knew that Shuhang had returned to Earth.

Song Shuhang was resting at the time, so he quickly answered the phone, "Senior White, you've left the ruins?"

Ding~~ Your friend Venerable White has logged on.

Ding~~ Your cheat program, Venerable White, has been renewed.

"Hmm, this ruin is quite impressive; I've learned a lot. I'll take you inside for a look when I have time later," Venerable White said calmly.

"Great! Great!" Song Shuhang said happily. Even Senior White said that the relics were quite rewarding. After he went in, he might be able to advance his cultivation level again.

Speaking of which... I've been having pretty good luck these past few days!

He wanted to see Sixteen, Sixteen came to Jiangnan District. He wanted the Dragon Demon, so the Dragon Demon appeared. He wanted martial arts skills, so he got the <Vajra Demon-Subduing Fist>. He wanted a screenwriter, so a screenwriter came to him.

The only regret is that his precious Spirit Ghost has disappeared... But it doesn't matter, the Spirit Ghost is still alive! As long as it's alive, he'll always find a way to bring Spirit Ghost back.

"Did you successfully advance?" Venerable White asked.

Song Shuhang: "Thanks to your blessing, senior, although there were many unexpected events during my advancement, with your 'Meteor Sword' and the secret assistance of several other seniors, I successfully Tribulation Transcendence. Now I am Third-Grade Cultivator."

"That's good. Let me test your fundamentals then," said Venerable White.

Song Shuhang: "By the way, Senior White, when are you coming back? We've already finished the opening sequence for the movie we're going to shoot, and now we're rewriting it into a script. If you come back, Senior White, you can take a look at the script."

"The script's opening is already out? Hmm, okay, I'll be right back. Where are you now?" Venerable White asked, having just finished a thrilling exploration of the ruins and taking a break from filming a movie.

"No. 105 Jiangran Road, Rainbow River Town, Jiangnan Region, is Yu Jiaojiao's villa. We're staying here now," Song Shuhang.

The Venerable White is returning, and his follow-up cultivation techniques will be coming soon. Moreover, with the Venerable White around, he is increasingly looking forward to the scene when he meets that muscular dragon.

I wonder if that muscular dragon will come alone, or with a group of helpers?

If only he had come sooner... He needs to prepare for filming a movie if he's late. It would be troublesome if this muscle-bound guy barged in while filming.

Huh?

Wait a minute! If this muscular dragon were to barge in during a movie shoot, it would be facing all the senior members of the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group,' as well as many of their friends and fellow seniors interested in playing minor roles in the film.

The scene will definitely be quite spectacular then, right?

This reminded him of the scene not long ago where a group of high-level players were farming the mini-boss Blood Demon.

The more Song Shuhang thought about it, the more fantastic it felt.

"Alright, I'll Sword Flight in a bit." After saying that, Venerable White suddenly added, "I'm a little hungry."

Song Shuhang: "Then I'll prepare some food for Senior White. Does Senior White want to eat something?"

"Anything is fine, I'm just suddenly a little hungry and want to eat something." After thinking for a moment, Venerable White added, "It would be even better if there was something delicious to eat."

"Alright, I'll try to prepare something for Senior White," Song Shuhang.

"Then I'm off. See you then." With that, Venerable White hung up the phone. Then he reached for his waist...

The Meteor Sword has disappeared!

Yes, he sent the Meteor Sword to Song Shuhang. That's the only flying sword he took with him on this trip.

There's no other way. Let's see if we can find any fresh branches and make a Disposable Flying Sword to use for now.

The Venerable White looked around.

Hmm... This is a headache. This is the vast ocean, and there are no suitable branches.

True Lord White Crane asked, "Senior White, are you looking for something?"

"I wanted to find a branch, but unfortunately this is the sea. This time, no one is strolling on the sea using branches as a step," Venerable White said regretfully.

"Trees? What does Senior White need tree branches for?" True Lord White Crane felt a pang of regret. Why hadn't he put a few tree roots in his spatial bag? That would have satisfied Venerable White's needs. He should remember this; it might come in handy later.

"Make Disposable Flying Sword," Venerable White replied.

"Senior, I have Immortal Ark here. We can ride together!" True Lord White Crane said happily, finally able to come in handy.

After thinking for a moment, Venerable White said, "But I still want the branch."

Sword Flight is much more exciting than flying on Immortal Ark.

"But this is a vast ocean, and we can't find any fresh branches..." True Lord White Crane was only halfway through his sentence when he suddenly noticed a spatial rift-like object appearing before him.

An aura of filth and evil emanates from within this spatial rift.

"The Netherworld!" True Lord White Crane's gaze turned cold.

Its hands formed a mudra, and its entire body radiated a bright aura. The Netherworld is the common enemy of cultivators. Once encountered, one must do one's best to eliminate the demons within and seal the passage between the Netherworld and Earth.

Just as True Lord White Crane was about to unleash his divine power to destroy the passage... a succulent tree branch emerged from the passage between the Netherworld and Earth.

It's somewhat similar to the willow trees in the Main World, except that its leaves are black.

Venerable White nodded. The tree branch was of good quality, fresh and vibrant. Venerable White was very satisfied...
