Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 604: Chapter 300: Cultivation Breakthrough (6k)

Chen Ye silently took note in his heart.

He had already begun to contemplate how to educate his disciple.

Only, the specifics of how to teach were truly giving Chen Ye a headache.

Disciplining Zhang Chuxi could be done through corporal punishment.

But to be rough with his disciple, that was absolutely out of the question.

But if he tried to persuade her softly, where would this little girl listen to her master’s words?

”Really giving the master a headache...”

Chen Ye sighed.

Once Zhiwei and Qing Jun left the room, only Chen Ye and Lin Jin remained inside.

At this moment.

Lin Jin’s eyes quietly opened a slit, gazing at Chen Ye.

Sure enough, this girl was awake.

Chen Ye smiled gently.

”Master, do Senior Sister and they not like me?” the girl on the bed said softly.

Chen Ye was about to stand up, but hearing this, he couldn’t help but be surprised.

He didn’t expect Jin’er to care about this, so he replied warmly:

”Silly girl, how could it be? Qing Jun just has that kind of temperament, tough on the outside but soft on the inside. As for Zhiwei, she’s cold by nature, but she still cares about you.”

Lin Jin was silent for a moment.

After all, she wasn’t foolish.

Seeing this, Chen Ye felt somewhat worried, Qing Jun and Zhiwei had been together since childhood, thus forming a deep bond.

But Jin’er was taken in as a disciple halfway.

So naturally there was a difference in relationships between the three.

Especially since Qing Jun and Zhiwei have unusual personalities, it’s likely they will never truly accept outsiders.

”Don’t overthink it.”

Chen Ye held her cold little hand and comforted her softly,

”Focus on recovering, once you’re better, Master will teach you even more powerful magic, and then no one will dare to underestimate you.”

Lin Jin shivered slightly, she said in a small voice:

”Really? Master... will you always teach me? You won’t... won’t think I’m a monster because I have Cold Flame, will you?”

”Of course not.”

Chen Ye looked at her firmly,

”You are my disciple, Cold Flame is your talent, a power bestowed upon you by the heavens, how could it be monstrous? As long as you are willing to work hard, you may surpass your two senior sisters in the future.”

These words of Chen Ye were not false.

Although Jin’er’s limit may not equal Qing Jun and Zhiwei, relying on Cold Flame, she hopes to surpass the two disciples in the near future.

”Perhaps... this time the outbreak of Cold Flame can’t make her a Fake Pill Cultivator as in the original story, but it might allow her to quickly establish Foundation...”

Chen Ye pondered silently, quietly extended his spiritual power, sensing her body.

On her meridians, there were still traces of bright blue flame residues, carrying an astonishingly powerful force.

His fingertips circulated spiritual power, cautiously guiding the residual bright blue Cold Flame back to the Dantian.

This force was fierce and cold, but under the combing of Chen Ye’s withered and flourishing spiritual power, it surprisingly became somewhat tamed.

”This Cold Flame, though domineering, is precisely your opportunity for Foundation Establishment. Although the backlash was dangerous, it also allowed you to benefit from misfortune, your meridians widened considerably.”

Chen Ye withdrew his hand, tucked in the corner of her quilt, and spoke softly,

”Rest and recuperate for the next few days, you don’t have to worry about outside matters. Once you’re healed, I will then teach you the method of refinement.”

”Yes, thank you, Master.”

Lin Jin nodded obediently, watching Chen Ye leave.

Chen Ye nodded with satisfaction.

It seemed he finally had a normal disciple.

...

In the coming days, the Lingyin Sect was as busy as never before.

The Grand Array protecting the sect was preserved, but the Outer Sect suffered severe damage, with countless disciples injured or killed.

More importantly, to prevent a resurgence of the demon cultivators and to root out any possible traitors hidden within the sect, the higher-ups worked day and night.

Bai Susu, being the hero of Moon Rhinoceros Lake District, was summoned by the Sect Master and Elders to discuss important matters, while nobody paid any attention to the still confined Zhang Chuxi.

As for Chen Ye, due to being ”heavily injured but recovered” and having accomplished great feats, he was specially allowed to rest quietly in Luoli Courtyard, becoming the most leisurely person in the sect.

This suited him perfectly.

Inside the Quiet Chamber.

Chen Ye sat cross-legged, with several bottles of Pills seized from Mei Suxin and the Purple Sun Pills he had refined himself placed in front of him.

”Now that external troubles have temporarily halted, it’s the perfect time to enhance my strength.”

He took a deep breath, and a flash of brilliance appeared in his eyes.

This journey to Black Cliff City, though perilous, had also deeply made him aware of the significance of strength.

If it weren’t for numerous trump cards, he would probably have fallen into the hands of demon cultivators long ago.

He had stayed at Foundation Establishment Second Layer for a long time, it was time to break through to Foundation Establishment Third Layer!

”And...”

Chen Ye glanced at the panel.

[Withered Glory Mysterious Light Technique (Perfection): 395/400]

It’s just one step away from Limit Break!

”Let’s begin.”

He didn’t hesitate any longer and swallowed a Middle Grade Purple Sun Pill.

Bang!

The searing medicine power exploded in his abdomen, flowing through his limbs and bones like molten lava.

Chen Ye remained focused, operating the Cultivation Technique.

As time passed, the aura around him began to undergo a peculiar transformation.

One half of his body was brimming with vitality, surrounded by green light, like withered wood encountering spring; the other half was lifeless and bleak, gray and desolate, like fallen leaves in late autumn.

Life and death, glory and withering, two inherently opposite forces intertwined, collided, and fused within him.

One day.

Two days.

Until the twelfth day.

The spiritual power within Chen Ye reached its peak.

”Crack—”

It was as if some barrier was broken.

[Withered Glory Mysterious Light Technique (Limit Break): 1/800]

The text on the panel blurred for a moment, then refreshed anew!

The two energies of green and gray originally flowing around him now completely merged into a profound dark light.

Once Limit Break occurs, it is not just an enhancement in proficiency, but a qualitative transformation of the Cultivation Technique!

But this was not the end!

With the qualitative transformation of the Cultivation Technique, the long-suppressed cultivation bottleneck was instantly shattered like a collapsing dam!
