Chapter 209 (continued)
After hearing what he said, Li Yang realized that he had misunderstood.
The old master of the Nature Department Pavilion was most likely the previous host of Sister Longevity, and since she had already advanced to the Ninth Grade Realm, she could definitely use most of Sister Longevity's abilities, including how to comprehend the desired Law of Time —not just the Law of Time, but probably other Laws of Heaven and Earth as well.
Cheng Rui was unaware that Sister Longevity was with Li Yang; he assumed that Si Kui had learned the teacher's secret technique and then passed it on to Li Yang.
Li Yang's talent is undeniable; he actually learned it too...
The truth was too complicated for Li Yang to explain, so he could only let Cheng Rui misunderstand for the time being.
She coughed lightly and asked, "Uncle-Master, are there any Master Realm Star Plant in this Time Realm Domain?"
After a moment's hesitation, Cheng Rui said, "Yes, there are some, but the God King of Time is very vigilant. If you rashly go to harvest them, it will definitely attract her attention."
Li Yang had no choice but to put that aside for now, and said, "Never mind then, I have other ways to comprehend the Law of Time... but I need my martial uncle to sense more Time Puppet as soon as possible..."
[Shock Points from Cheng Rui +1000 points.]
[Shock Points from Cheng Rui +1000 points.]
After refreshing the screen six more times, Li Yang couldn't help but think that Cheng Rui might not even need to sense 1,000 Time Puppet anymore; maybe 100 would be enough.
Uncle-Master Cheng Rui is also easily shocked!
Despite the large amount of Shock Points Cheng Rui provided, he didn't connect his understanding of the Law of Time with his Time Puppet at all.
It's simply because Li Yang has "other" methods...
Li Yang is extremely perceptive at a young age.
My senior sister has taken on an amazing student!
Cheng Rui: "Okay! If there's anything I can help you with, just let me know."
Li Yang: "You just need to focus on sensing the Spacetime Puppet."
[Shock Points from Cheng Rui +1000 points.]
Goodness...
Li Yang really needs to maintain her persona of being exceptionally talented and having amazing comprehension.
This is how you collect more Shock Points.
Li Yang then quickly asked the Flower of Evil, "What's needed to quickly sense more Spacetime Puppet? Mental energy? And what's needed to ensure he can reliably control the Spacetime Puppet?"
The Flower of Evil is an expert in this field.
In this Astral Realm, he is probably the person who understands Spacetime Puppet best, besides the God King of Time.
Even the Flower of Evil was quite surprised by this unexpected family reunion.
The Flower of Evil had met Shen Binghua; the cold-blooded Star Magic Department woman had left a deep impression on him when they were in the Evil Domain.
I never expected the person in front of me to be one of the "Auspicious Snow"...
Li Yang's ability to win all the way to the finals of the Personal Disciple Tournament competition seems to be guided by some unseen thread of fate.
Of course, these thoughts only flashed through the Flower of Evil's mind.
He responded to Li Yang's question, saying, "Well... he's currently cultivating the Power of Time. As long as there's a large amount of Power of Time, he can sense and control it."
Li Yang: "!"
It's that simple.
This Time Realm Domain is filled with an inexhaustible amount of Power of Time, as Master Cheng Rui...
The Flower of Evil added, "But he has a problem: because so many Spacetime Puppet have been extracted, he has essentially lost his 'history,' making it extremely difficult for him to sense the Power of Time on his own."
This answered one of Li Yang's questions.
Cheng Rui was already at the Seventh Grade Peak when he was captured, but after staying in the Time Realm Domain for so long, he is still only at the Eighth Grade Realm.
Given his talent and the unique nature of his Time Realm Domain, the reason his cultivation is so slow is likely because he has lost "history".
Li Yang asked Cheng Rui, "Uncle-Master, how do you usually cultivate?"
Cheng Rui said something similar to what the Flower of Evil said, but then added, "The God King of Time will periodically give me a pill filled with the Power of Time, after which I will be able to improve."
The God King of Time desired a higher level of Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul, but unfortunately, Cheng Rui's Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul had never fully developed, so she was deliberately suppressing Cheng Rui's level.
Li Yang: "That elixir..."
Cheng Rui shook his head and said, "Don't even think about it, it will definitely alert her."
Li Yang paused, pondering how to help Cheng Rui collect the Power of Time.
Cheng Rui asked, "Hmm, you can draw upon the Power of Time from the Time Realm Domain?"
After all, the Bone Peach Mother Tree came to the Time Realm Domain for the purpose of cultivation, so it can definitely absorb its essence.
Li Yang: "Yes, you can."
Cheng Rui immediately said, "I see that your Sparse Words, Natural Heart Sutra has been greatly perfected. You can convert the collected Power of Time into the Power of Nature and then transfer it to me, so that I can sense the Spacetime Puppet more quickly!"
Li Yang: "!" Can it be like this?
However, Li Yang didn't know how to convert the Power of Time into the Power of Nature.
"Didn't your senior sister teach you? You've already advanced to the Master Realm and possess the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul; this is a must-learn..."
Li Yang quickly explained that Si Kui was currently in seclusion attempting to break through to the Ninth-Grade Supreme, and that her cultivation speed was too fast, so she hadn't had a chance to ask her for guidance yet.
Cheng Rui: "..."
[Shock Points from Cheng Rui +1000 points.]
[From...]
He paused for a moment, then said, "Your cultivation speed is indeed... cough, extraordinary."
Li Yang quickly used the unimpeded communication through Divine Sense to inquire, "Uncle-Master, please explain it to me! I'll convert the Power of Nature; that way, we'll be more efficient."
Cheng Rui nodded and asked her, "You know your preferences Fortune Spirit, right?"
"Fortune Spirit?" These two words left Li Yang completely bewildered.
Cheng Rui: "You are Heavenly Fortune Bearer, so naturally you have Fortune Spirit, but... I'm not sure how you address them nowadays."
Li Yang understood, blinked, and said, "System..."
Cheng Rui: "?"
Even after 28 years of Huaxia, there is still a significant generation gap.
The Huaxia Realm Domain, in particular, has developed extremely rapidly in recent years.
Cheng Rui is at least several hundred years old, so it's normal that he's unfamiliar with the word "system".
Before Li Yang could explain, Cheng Rui said, "It's alright, each generation has its own way of addressing people, you can call them whatever you want!"
Li Yang quickly asked, "Uncle-Master, is it to transform the Power of Nature by Fortune Spirit?"
That would be a real "life-threatening" situation.
Li Yang is still trying to extend her lifespan; she really can't afford to feed Sister Longevity anymore.
Cheng Rui carefully explained to her, "I'm sure you know very well your preferences Fortune Spirit..."
Li Yang smiled wryly, "She just likes Star Plant."
Cheng Rui nodded and said, "I guessed it."
"But here..."
"Remember, it's not that you are dependent on Fortune Spirit, but that Fortune Spirit is at your service."
Li Yang: "!"
Cheng Rui continued, "Converting the Power of Nature is extremely simple; you just need to give the order."
"But..."
"Believe me, Fortune Spirit likes you more than you think."
Li Yang: "..."
She recalled Sister Longevity's sharp tongue and ruthlessness, and felt that Uncle Cheng Rui was oversimplifying things.
They are truly gifted, while she is gifted in the opposite way.
I have a feeling that Sister Longevity has been worrying herself sick over her talent...
But then again, how can this not be considered love?
Despite her complaints, Sister Longevity neither left her nor stopped working.
Li Yang's success today is largely due to Sister Longevity's contributions.
Li Yang hesitated before saying, "I'll try it when I get back later."
Cheng Rui: "Go ahead, I'll wait for you!"
He knew that Li Yang had used a very advanced secret technique to infiltrate this place, a technique that would likely be extremely taxing on her, so he didn't dare waste her time.
Li Yang was indeed nearing her breaking point.
Lifespan is slipping away like water. Although a way to earn income has been found, we still need to wait for Cheng Rui to sense the Spacetime Puppet, so...
She had to go back first.
Besides, the two of them have already communicated enough, so there's no need to waste any more time here.
Li Yang: "Uncle-Master, I'll go back and transform the Power of Nature first!"
She interrupted her Divine Sense, used the Meld into Space to leave the thirteenth cultivation room, and stealthily returned to her previous cultivation room.
Throughout the entire process, Lianxin had been keeping watch for her. At this moment, he whispered, "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I haven't sensed the aura of the God King of Time."
Li Yang immediately beamed and said, "Thank you, Lianlian."
[Lifespan +1000 years.]
[Lifespan +1000 years.]
The Flower of Evil rolled its eyes and said, "Useless Lotus, far inferior to me. He can only be..."
Before he could finish speaking, Li Yang interrupted, "How dare a dignified Divine Venerable Realm compare himself to the Gradeless Realm?"
Flower of Evil: "..."
[Lifespan +1200 years.]
Li Yang: "!"
The lifespan that Lianxin had given her actually increased even further.
It seems that this Flower of Evil has really affected Lianlian quite a bit.
However, it may not necessarily be a bad thing.
Lianlian will also be cultivating in the future, and having a rival will give her even more motivation!
Of course, Li Yang would never allow the Flower of Evil to bully Lianlian.
Verbal bullying is not acceptable.
Li Yang sat cross-legged in the meditation room, pondering how to "communicate" with Sister Longevity.
Cheng Rui gave her crucial inspiration.
She wasn't dependent on Sister Longevity; rather, Sister Longevity was used by her.
Li Yang has indeed been "using" Sister Longevity all along, but she also provides a corresponding lifespan.
If it weren't for Sister Longevity's ability to harvest lifespans by harvesting Star Plant...
Etc!
Li Yang suddenly turned around.
Li Yang had always believed that it was because of the appearance of Sister Longevity that she possessed the ability to gain lifespan by harvesting.
Is that really the case?
Was it really Sister Longevity gave her this ability?
If this also came from Sister Longevity, then why did Sister Longevity choose her, a host with poor talent, low comprehension, and almost no possibility of cultivation?
