Plan to Continue the Prosperous Era of Cultivation

"What's wrong?"

"What happened?!"

"Master? What's the matter?"

After a hearty meal, everyone was still savoring the aftertaste, immersed in the changes within their own bodies.

Only Master Roshi was different; he stood up abruptly, rushed outside the house, and sat down in a cross-legged position.

This sudden scene startled everyone, and they all followed him out. Of course, Wuchen, Goku, and Krillin were surprised yet delighted.

"Don't, don't disturb the old master." Seeing Bulma, Yamcha, and the others about to approach Master Roshi, Wuchen quickly spoke up to stop them.

Yes, he knew Master Roshi was about to break through.

He had sensed it earlier. Master Roshi had already reached the peak of the first stage of Soul Condensation, and his rate of cultivation progress was much faster than Goku's had been.

There were two reasons: first, the support of a large amount of superior spiritual items; second, Master Roshi's own profound foundation and formidable physique, which naturally led to extraordinary progress.

Now, aided by the medicinal meal, his long-accumulated efforts were naturally bearing fruit.

"Being mysterious again!" Bulma watched Wuchen's calm demeanor, which reminded her of how this guy was always acting secretive back when they were searching for the Dragon Balls.

There was a time before when he told her not to disturb Goku without explaining what was actually going on.

Even the mystery of how the two brothers had turned into monsters remained unsolved to this day.

"Is Master Mutaito practicing some kind of martial art? I feel like he's getting stronger!" Yamcha, on the other hand, had vaguely sensed something.

Wuchen did not choose to remain silent about this. To be honest, he had long planned to spread the Essence-to-Spirit Conversion method from the Yin-Yang Creation Art.

This moment was as good a time as any.

"That's right, Master Roshi is practicing a divine technique and is about to break through, which will greatly increase his strength!" Thus, Wuchen took this opportunity to reveal the existence of cultivation, hoping it could be widely spread.

The group looked at each other in surprise, none of them expecting Wuchen to explain. Bulma was the most shocked; this guy was always so cryptic.

Whenever he did something amazing, he would brush it off afterward with phrases like "it's nothing" or "just a special constitution." Why the change of heart this time?

Ignoring their surprise, Wuchen led them to a nearby clearing and explained the cultivation situation of himself, Goku, Krillin, and Master Roshi.

Of course, he limited it to "Essence-to-Spirit Conversion" and the cultivation of spiritual plants, while also detailing some knowledge regarding breathing techniques, opening the Consciousness Realm, condensing the Origin Soul, Momentum Insight, and Spirit Attachment. He mentioned nothing else.

"Are you saying that what you gave me before were just ordinary fruits and vegetables? And that they changed because of a method you realized from some tree?"

Bulma turned into a curious child, firing off one question after another: "What exactly is this 'spiritual energy' you speak of? Why does it have this effect? And is that fruit tree still there? Can I go see it?"

Wuchen felt a headache coming on. He could only answer what he could and make up the rest. He even took Bulma to see the so-called first spiritual tree.

It was one of the first spiritual trees he had 'cultivated,' and it did possess some mysterious changes, which was enough to satisfy Bulma for the moment.

"Senior Brother, I have a question I'd like to ask you." Fortunately, Krillin came to the rescue, or Wuchen wouldn't have been able to handle it. Bulma's curiosity was simply too intense.

"Krillin, you want to ask about Spirit Attachment, right?"

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother. I've realized my attribute as you said—it's the Metal attribute. I've also successfully condensed my Origin Soul, but I just can't seem to perform Spirit Attachment. Master Mutaito doesn't know what's wrong either." Indeed, Krillin was genuinely seeking advice, not just trying to help.

"Metal represents change and reform; it values slaughter and emphasizes descent. You cannot blindly pursue brute force. You have only grasped the aspect of sharp, killing momentum, which is not a true realization. You must understand the principle that while a sword is sharp, a blunt weapon is heavy and restrained; only then can you truly comprehend it."

Regardless, Krillin had helped him out, and Wuchen was quite grateful. He patiently cleared up Krillin's confusion, using the opportunity to escape Bulma's questioning.

Compared to the inquisitive Bulma, Yamcha was much more composed. He mimicked Master Roshi, sat cross-legged, and began to experiment.

Goku, being warm-hearted, offered some appropriate pointers from the side, and Yamcha actually began to grasp the method.

Over at Master Roshi's side, changes were occurring.

The air in the four directions became slightly damp. Although the sky remained cloudless, a light, drizzling rain began to fall.

This rain did not come from the sky; it condensed out of thin air in mid-flight before descending. The area of effect was small and didn't even alert anyone other than Wuchen, but it was exceptionally peculiar.

Gradually, the fine rain gathered into threads of water, circling Master Roshi before suddenly stopping and soaking into the soil.

As he slowly stood up, Master Roshi's aura became much more restrained, leaving Wuchen in awe. Master Mutaito was truly a grandmaster of martial arts; not only did he break through his cultivation, but his understanding of the "water momentum" had also reached a higher level.

"Congratulations, Master. A double blessing," Wuchen immediately stepped forward to offer his congratulations.

"You, nothing escapes your eyes. Honestly, what stage are you and Goku at now?" Master Roshi laughed heartily before asking Wuchen in return.

"Goku broke through to the third stage of Soul Condensation four months ago, and he's only a step away from the fourth. As for me, I'm about the same as Goku."

Wuchen replied, then took out a bottle of pills and handed it to Master Roshi: "Master, there are ten pills in here. I discovered them by accident; taking them can boost your cultivation. You and Krillin can use them to assist your practice."

"Such precious things should be kept for you and Goku. Your talents are far better, and you can go much further."

"You worry too much, Master. Although I discovered them by accident, I've already mastered the refining technique. As long as there are enough spiritual herbs, I can refine as many as I want. By the way, here is another bottle with beauty-enhancing effects. Could you please pass it to Launch?"

"Very well, I shall accept them." Seeing this, Master Roshi stopped declining. He then looked at Yamcha, who was sitting in the distance, and spoke again.

"Have you passed the secrets of spiritual energy cultivation to them?" He seemed to be asking, but the answer was obvious. Master Roshi felt quite gratified; what a good child who knows how to share. Yes, Master Roshi had a deep misunderstanding of Wuchen.

"Yes, I've thought about it. Although I realized these secrets myself, they are extremely beneficial to others, and even to the whole world. They should be spread," Wuchen said righteously, without a hint of blushing or a racing heart.

"Very good. It is truly wonderful that you think this way. If Wufan knew... by the way, Wufan..." Master Roshi felt increasingly gratified, yet also filled with emotion.

Wuchen quickly led the way, taking Master Roshi to pay respects at Sun Wufan's grave, where they discussed the dissemination of the cultivation methods.

Afterward, the two of them rejoined the group, who were all in the middle of training—even Bulma had started to practice.

With the addition of Goku and Master Roshi, the collective training reached a climax, igniting everyone's passion.

During this time, there was no shortage of discussions about cultivation, and Wuchen would occasionally interject with a clever remark or two, solidifying the story he had fabricated.
