Bringing Life into Being with a Flick of the Hand, Battle Intent Among the Three Old Monsters
However, in this Primordial Land, many beings with exceptional backgrounds are born with their own methods of cultivation, and do not need to be taught by others.
The parts that need to be taught are things they haven't even grasped themselves yet!
As for those creatures with ordinary origins and shallow foundations, they look down on them.
From their perspective, this Little Yellow Dragon would definitely not be of any interest to them, but Wu Chu took it in anyway.
However, to Wu Chu's utter surprise, his slight show of arrogance and the statement he considered to be of little technical value—which at most expressed his teaching philosophy and shifted the blame for the potential poor performance of his future apprentices—were merely attempts to deflect attention from the issue.
As a result, while Little Moon Spirit and the others were still processing those top-quality ingredients, these three old monsters went outside and casually conjured three lives.
The Qiankun Ancestor Yin-Yang Ancestor of Yin and Yang arrived at the Hot Spring atop Flower Mountain, pointed his finger into the water, and a semi-transparent being rose from the spring; the Long-Brow Old Daoist was even more casual, finding a sprig of reed by the lake below and transforming it into a green-clad girl...
The three eccentric old Daoist priests seemed to be competing with each other, and the lives they conjured were all more ordinary and unreliable than the last.
If the Qiankun Ancestor used a wisp of Qiankun to create a life, that would be somewhat plausible. If the Yin-Yang Ancestor used a wisp of Hot Spring containing a trace of Yin Yang and Yang Qi to create a life, that would be so-so. But the Long-Brow Old Daoist seems a bit like a joke.
The green-clad girl A Mang, the strange girl A Wen dressed in half black and half white, and the ordinary gray-clad girl A Wu are all beings created by three old monsters.
It's clear from their names that these three old monsters not only chose their life-enlightening methods arbitrarily, but they were also extremely perfunctory in naming them.
Although in this Primordial World, all life was Innate Beings, even that ordinary grass would be considered an Innate plant in later generations.
However, there are differences between Innate spiritual objects Innate.
If the Little Yellow Dragon is not good enough for them, but at least it has a decent background, then this silvergrass has a shallow foundation, just like those wildflowers.
Wu Chu felt that these three old monsters were somewhat competitive and went to extremes.
In the past, they were reluctant to accept even beings with exceptionally outstanding potential, let alone disciples. But now, they are actually going to enlighten beings with extremely shallow foundations.
This was somewhat difficult for Wu Chu to understand, but when he saw the three of them send the three girls to learn cooking from Little Moon Spirit, he instantly understood.
Preaching is secondary; the real purpose is probably to learn Little Moon Spirit's cooking skills!
Just as Wu Chu was realizing what was happening, the Long-Brow Old Daoist smiled at him and said, "Young friend, you wouldn't mind passing on your Golden Core Dao to my little Daoist boy, would you?"
The other two old monsters stroked their beards and nodded, their meaning clear: they also hoped their young Daoist apprentice would follow suit and learn the Golden Core Dao.
This is currently the best cultivation method to compensate for the shallow Spirit Root. Although it's not that they can't figure it out, there's no need to waste their energy since there's a ready-made method.
As for their cultivation after becoming Celestial Immortal, they will need their guidance. That will be the true beginning of their battle.
The three old monsters exchanged glances, each seeing a fighting spirit in the other's eyes.
Wu Chu could also sense the unspoken competition between these three incredibly boring old men, so he smiled and said, "This junior naturally doesn't mind. If this method can be spread throughout the Primordial World in the future, it will be a blessing for all living beings in the Primordial World, and this would be my honor!"
He also wanted to see which of the three old men was the best at teaching apprentices.
People who are good at speaking tend to have good luck.
Sure enough, after Wu Chu uttered those words, the Long-Brow Old Daoist said, "This humble Daoist is not one to take advantage of others. I have a supernatural power here, which I will give to you as compensation!"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Wu Chu. A beam of light flew towards Wu Chu, and before Wu Chu could react, the light leaped and instantly entered his forehead.
Spatial Leap Art?
Wu Chu blinked, then bowed to the Long-Brow Old Daoist and thanked him.
This Long-Brow Old Daoist was a cultivator of the Spatial Dao. Such spatial techniques and supernatural abilities were simply at his disposal, and were extremely difficult to defend against.
If that magical light hadn't been a transmission of divine power, but rather an attack spell, he would have been instantly killed on the spot.
The technique that the other party passed on to him was the Spatial Leap Art he had just used.
This Spatial Leap Art is remarkably similar to the Qiankun Shifting Art. If the technique were replaced with one's own body, wouldn't it become a spatial leap? However, Wu Chu needed to carefully consider the specific differences; now was clearly not the time to think about that.
The Long-Brow Old Daoist chuckled and flicked his sleeves. "Young friend, there's no need to be so polite. This old Daoist isn't the kind of petty, eccentric old man who finds pleasure in stealing other people's treasures..."
Upon hearing this, the Yin-Yang Ancestor glared at him angrily, "Old man Mei, who are you talking about?"
The Long-Brow Old Daoist picked up his wine cup and laughed heartily, "Whoever answers, speaks!"
As he spoke, he tilted his head back and drank deeply, looking extremely pleased, as if he had finally avenged the previous grudge. This angered the Old Yin Yang, who raised his hand and flicked a beam of mysterious light at Wu Chu, which instantly entered Wu Chu's mind.
Only the Long-Brow Old Daoist could make this strange old man, who enjoys stealing from others, willingly give away his own things.
Wu Chu silently gave the Long-Brow Old Daoist a thumbs up in his heart, thinking: Maybe I should give little A Mang some extra help later, after all, her master is just too cute!
The magical power bestowed by the Yin-Yang Ancestor is not any other Yin Yang Dao divine power, but an upgraded version of the Sun-Moon Divine Wheel divine power.
This shows that the Yin Yang Old Monster is indeed a bit petty; he actually split a supernatural power into two parts to repay a favor twice.
As for the Qiankun Ancestor, what he gave was not magic or supernatural powers, but a Spirit Treasure —a chessboard with yellowish-brown wood grain, containing the Laws of the Dao of Qiankun. Wu Chu found it somewhat strange; why would he attach the Laws of the Dao of Qiankun to it?
Just as Wu Chu was wondering about this, the Qiankun Ancestor laughed and said, "This chessboard is a game that I devised after seeing the Black-and-White Chess with your master. It contains the Laws of the Dao of Qiankun. If you don't understand the Laws of the Dao of Qiankun, you can't play it."
As he spoke, he took out two more boxes of chess pieces and asked Wu Chu, "Young friend, would you like to give it a try?"
