Becoming Fang Tianyi's Disciple

Falling Cloud Peak, Shen Yun's home.

Zhou Ziyou poured a cup of tea, slowly added ice cubes to it, and only placed it on the table once the water temperature was just right.

"The water's just right. Qianluo, drink first."

Zhou Ziyou wore a fawning expression, utterly lacking the imposing air with which he had looked down upon all living beings earlier.

Lin Qianluo accepted the tea, raised her brows, and said, "Yun is cooking for us all by himself. Why aren't you helping him?"

"As you command!"

Zhou Ziyou immediately ran into the kitchen, picking vegetables, washing them, and chopping them, working away with boundless delight.

Shen Yun secretly admired her. As expected of Sister Qianluo. This is the Third Prince of Great Zhou.

Zhou Ziyou did not put on the slightest princely airs. He worked as Shen Yun's assistant in the kitchen, and with his help, all the dishes were soon served.

Once the three took a seat, Lin Qianluo's eyes lit up when she discovered that every dish was from cuisines she liked.

"It's still this flavor. Only Yun's cooking is the most authentic."

Lin Qianluo ate quickly without losing any manners, appearing exceptionally elegant.

Zhou Ziyou smiled cheerfully. He rarely moved his chopsticks, instead repeatedly glancing at Lin Qianluo, as though her beauty alone was enough to feast upon.

Shen Yun smiled without speaking. Seeing the two of them like this, he found the atmosphere exceptionally warm.

After the meal, they began discussing cultivation. Upon hearing that Shen Yun had already reached the Qi Refining Third Layer, Lin Qianluo said in surprise, "Yun is still so outstanding. You've already caught up to me."

Zhou Ziyou was inwardly startled. Such rapid cultivation progress... could he be a Heavenly Spirit Root?

After hearing that Shen Yun merely possessed a Three-Attribute Spirit Root, Zhou Ziyou understood. Brother Shen must possess a Spirit Body.

Thinking this, Zhou Ziyou said, "Brother Shen, have you heard of the Dragon Blood Pool?"

Shen Yun was taken aback and did not understand what he meant. He then shook his head.

"The Dragon Blood Pool is a supreme treasure passed down by the Great Zhou Ancestor. It can strengthen the Physical Body and cleanse the spirit." Zhou Ziyou Took a Deep Breath and said solemnly, "Brother Shen, you may visit Great Zhou next year. I'll ask Imperial Father to grant you a spot."

Hearing this, Shen Yun's expression changed in shock, and he hurriedly said, "That is far too precious. There is no need for this."

Lin Qianluo's gaze was incomparably gentle as she softly said, "If it's too troublesome, then forget it. I'll thank you for your kindness on Yun's behalf."

Zhou Ziyou shook his head and said casually, "There are ten spots every year. It's no great matter."

Seeing that Shen Yun still wanted to refuse, he waved his hand and said, "You're Qianluo's younger brother. There's no need to talk about such things among family."

Lin Qianluo's face reddened slightly, and she could not help giving him a light punch. "If you dare spout nonsense again, don't expect to eat dinner tonight."

Seeing the two flirting and bickering, Shen Yun finally caught on. "In that case, many thanks, Brother Zhou."

The two played at Qixia Mountain for five days before preparing to leave and return to Great Zhou.

Before they departed, Shen Yun gave them fifty High-Grade Talismans. Lin Qianluo reproached him playfully, "Why are you still being so polite with Sister Qianluo?"

Shen Yun smiled. "I refined these myself. They aren't worth much money, and you can keep them for protection."

Zhou Ziyou raised his brows and said in surprise, "Brother Shen is actually a Talisman Master as well. This brother admires you."

"Hmph, and whose younger brother do you think he is?"

Lin Qianluo smiled beautifully and took out a Jade Box to store away the talismans, making Shen Yun smile bitterly to himself.

"Yun, come to Great Zhou when you have the chance. Then Sister Qianluo will take you all around the capital."

Lin Qianluo helped Shen Yun straighten his clothes and bid him farewell with a face full of reluctance.

Zhou Ziyou laughed heartily. "Brother Shen, you must come next year. This brother will leave the seat to my left vacant for you."

Meeting, becoming acquainted, parting, reuniting... they seemed to be the main melody of life.

Shen Yun waved as he watched them leave Falling Cloud Peak.

After the two left, Shen Yun became free as well.

"I should pay Mister Fang a visit at the Scripture Pavilion."

After preparing some gifts, he made his way to Tianwei Mountain.

In the early morning, birds sang and flowers bloomed amid the mountain forest. Bright sunlight spilled down, the air was fresh, the trees were verdant, and everything brimmed with the breath of nature.

Shen Yun strode briskly, admiring the mountain scenery and feeling refreshed in body and spirit.

Halfway there, he Slightly Furrowed his brows as he caught a Fishy smell of blood, but he continued forward without giving anything away.

A whistling sound tore through the air. A gleaming silver short blade was pressed against his neck, followed by a low voice. "Don't move."

Shen Yun stopped, seemingly frightened by the sudden turn of events.

The person behind him had just breathed a sigh of relief when she suddenly felt as though her mind had been struck by a heavy hammer. The next moment, she lost consciousness and collapsed weakly to the ground.

"Where did this petty thief come from, daring to run all the way to Tianwei Mountain?"

After withdrawing his Spiritual Sense, Shen Yun turned around. A graceful figure lay On the ground, her face covered by black gauze, dressed in black clothes and black trousers like a Female Thief. Blood had stained her chest red, and she appeared to be seriously injured.

Shen Yun rubbed his chin and muttered, "So this is that thief? She doesn't seem very smart."

He grabbed the Female Thief by the collar and hauled her up, continuing up the mountain while intending to hand her over to the Guard Team along the way.

After walking for a while, he spotted a familiar White-Clad Figure leisurely taking a stroll.

Shen Yun stepped forward and said, "Greetings, Mister Fang."

Mister Fang looked over and scrutinized him carefully for a moment. Then he said in surprise, "I never expected you to truly make it this far. Come with me."

With a sweep of his Large Sleeve, Shen Yun only felt the world spin around him. The next moment, he appeared atop a Dao platform.

Once he clearly saw the surrounding scenery, Shen Yun was secretly shocked. He brought me to the summit in an instant. What kind of divine ability is this?

Clouds and mist coiled around Tianwei Peak. The rising dawn shone through the clouds, gilding the Yin Yang Fish diagram beneath their feet with a golden edge.

"I never expected there to be a Heavenly Insight Person like you in the Northern Wasteland. The world truly is vast, and there are all manner of strange things within it."

Mister Fang's voice echoed across the mountaintop. With a flick of his finger, the white clouds slowly transformed until they became tables and chairs.

After Mister Fang took a seat, he Pointed Towards a cloud chair and said, "Sit."

Shen Yun sat at the table and asked, "What is a Heavenly Insight Person?"

Mister Fang lifted his eyelids and said indifferently, "It is a legend left behind from long ago. I Only know that Heavenly Insight People possess heavenly wisdom and can see through the mysteries of all things in the world."

Shen Yun's expression shifted. That description truly was remarkably fitting.

Mister Fang tapped the cloud table with his fingers. After a long while, he pondered and said, "Are you willing to become my disciple?"

Shen Yun froze for a moment and did not immediately agree, even though he knew the man before him was absolutely a World-Shaking figure.

Shen Yun Took a Deep Breath and said seriously, "What can I learn from you, sir?"

A teacher passed down the Dao, imparted knowledge, and resolved doubts. What he needed was not a protective umbrella, but someone to point out the road ahead.

A sharp gleam flashed in Mister Fang's eyes as he said solemnly, "The Jade Slip I gave you is merely the key to the Path of Eternal Extreme Realm. Is that enough?"

Shen Yun was stunned. The Black Jade Slip was profound and all-encompassing, containing the transformations of the Five Elements, yet there was actually an even stronger continuation. He immediately realized that this was a hard-won opportunity.

After bowing low like pushing down a golden mountain and toppling a jade pillar, Shen Yun completed the disciple-taking ceremony and said solemnly, "Greetings, Master."

"Remember the Main Body's name—Fang Tianyi."

Mister Fang raised one hand in the air, and Shen Yun was immediately pulled to his feet by an invisible force.

"Heaven One gives birth to water; Earth Six completes it..."

Shen Yun thought of that ancient saying and found it exceptionally fitting.

"Now that you have initially fused the powers of fire and wood, you are not far from gaining a third type of Magic Power. But this is not your limit."

Fang Tianyi flicked his finger, and Golden light burst forth from his fingertips and flew into Shen Yun's Sea of Consciousness.

A mysterious Cultivation Method manifested itself. Every word was a pearl, expounding upon the ultimate principles of the Five Elements Dao Methods.

"Five Elements Outer Law, this is..."

Shen Yun gave it a cursory read, and countless flashes of Spiritual light appeared in his mind. The three kinds of spiritual power in his Sea of Qi silently surged, as though an entirely new power was being conceived.

Fang Tianyi said solemnly, "With your talent, you can absolutely cultivate all five kinds of Five Elements Mana simultaneously. However, you only possess Three-Attribute Spirit Roots. Even if you cultivate the other two elemental manas, their strength will be difficult to match. Five Elements Outer Law can solve this problem."

Shen Yun listened attentively, feeling as though the doors to a new world had opened before him.

"Those who eat grass are good at walking yet foolish; those who eat meat are brave yet fierce; those who eat grain are wise yet clever; those who eat qi are divine and long-lived. The earliest cultivators were also called qi refiners. The Dao of qi conceals the true essence of cultivation."

"If you can command the Five Elements Mana and forge an unparalleled foundation of ceaseless birth and extinction, then in the future, you may perhaps have a sliver of a chance to Spy on the legendary Five Qi Towards Primordial Realm."

Hearing Fang Tianyi's words, Shen Yun immediately saw the road ahead clearly.

Cultivate the Five Elements Spiritual Power until they stand shoulder to shoulder, then fuse them into one. It truly shares the same wondrous purpose through different paths as returning from the acquired to the Innate Realm. I wonder what kind of sight it will be when all Five Elements gather together.

Just as he was thinking, Fang Tianyi looked at the Female Thief lying prone on the ground and teased, "I've said everything that needed to be said. This Little girl is about to wake up, so handle the rest yourself."

The moment his words fell, his figure vanished into thin air without the slightest warning.

Shen Yun steadied himself and looked down. The Female Thief's fingers twitched slightly, and her eyelids began to tremble as well, as though she would awaken the next second.

"I can't be bothered with this kind of troublesome matter."

Shen Yun flicked his finger, and spiritual power struck the Female Thief on the back of her head. She instantly fainted again.

He grabbed her by the collar once more, carrying her like a piece of trash as he strolled down the mountain.
