Lin Su returned to the foot of Qingxiao Peak. The world of cultivation was naturally clean. He had not been there for three months, and there was not a speck of dust in the house.
As he prepared to go out, he naturally had to report. A jade slip with a voice message flew out of his palm and headed directly for the peak. He had thought that his novice master was in retreat and might not pay attention to him, but he didn't expect that another jade slip would fly over a moment later, with a voice message on it: "Come to the peak."
Lin Su has now become a golden elixir, but he has the Absolute Domain Ring. He pretends that his cultivation level is only at the Foundation Establishment Stage. It is not easy for him to fly with a flying tool at the beginning of the Foundation Establishment Stage and climb up this ten thousand feet high snow mountain.
Lin Su lifted his clothes and found a less steep mountain road. He flew up a distance in his flying device and landed somewhere. It was fine at first, but the higher he went, the stronger the wind became, making it more difficult to fly. He needed more spiritual energy, but without spiritual energy to resist the cold, the cold that could freeze a mortal to death directly invaded his body, forcing him to stay in a sheltered place.
A Jindan cultivator could of course go straight to the top of the mountain, but he is now a foundation-building cultivator who has just broken through. If he can go straight to the top of the mountain, Qingxiao Peak cannot be called the most difficult mountain to climb in the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect.
The bitter cold was ever-present, yet there was no spiritual energy suitable for cultivators with fire roots. Lin Su took out his spirit stones to absorb it, but what he absorbed was far less than what he consumed. When his body was completely frozen, a pure white figure stood before him. His robes seemed even whiter than the snow, but his eyes were dark and cold. Shen Qingtang lifted Lin Su's arm, turned around, and led the man sitting with his legs crossed to the bottom of the peak. Looking at his icy appearance, he said, "Although you have reached the foundation-building stage, you are powerless to protect yourself. You cannot leave."
"Master, isn't... in seclusion?" Lin Su exhaled extremely cold air.
"You don't need to practice hard in seclusion to use the Ice Soul. You have been in the blessed land for three months, and your cultivation has improved quite well." Shen Qingtang didn't intend to really leave it alone.
"It's just because of the rebuilding. Even if I reach the foundation-building stage, I can't reach the top of Qingxiao Peak." Lin Su left the freezing cold place, his spiritual energy returned, and all the frost and snow on his body melted away.
"There are only three people in the Jiuxiao Immortal Gate who can reach the top of Qingxiao Peak during the Foundation Establishment Period. If you want to go out for training, you cannot leave until you reach the top." Shen Qingtang didn't want him to get into any accidents, but as a master he couldn't follow him all the time, otherwise he would be no different from those overly doting parents.
"There are only three of them..." Lin Su murmured.
Shen Qingtang thought he was timid, but didn't want to hear him say, "Being outside is also a training, this method is also a training. If I can't even get past Master, then being outside is just serving food to others. If I reach the top, won't I be the fourth person in the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect?"
Shen Qingtang thought his idea was quite interesting: "It's just the Foundation Establishment Stage."
If you reach the fasting period, such a harsh environment will not actually have much impact.
"Even the foundation building stage is good." Lin Su smiled as he stood beside him. "As the master's disciple, I can't even climb Qingxiao Peak. It would be embarrassing to tell others about it."
"It's okay for your face." Shen Qingtang knew that he wanted to make progress and felt that he should be encouraged. "Just do your best."
"Yes, Master." Lin Su held his arm and smiled. "Master has been in seclusion for three months, but he knew I went to the blessed land. Seeing that I was exhausted from climbing, he came to help. It turns out that Master is the only one who treats me the best in Jiuxiao Xianmen."
It was also Shen Qingtang's first time as a master. He just thought that this was what a teacher should do. He thought that he would misunderstand that he was letting it go or deliberately making things difficult for him. However, he didn't expect that he could see through it. He believed that giving sincerity does not necessarily require anything in return. It is actually a good feeling to be known by others.
For the first time, he thought that taking in an apprentice might be a good decision: "It's nothing, it's what a teacher should do."
"Master looks aloof, but he's actually very kind-hearted." Lin Su looked at him and smiled, "Thank you, Master."
It was rare for him to be so serious. Shen Qingtang pulled his arm away uncomfortably and said, "Master, I have never been soft-hearted."
How can one treat his apprentice with the same ruthlessness as he treats his enemy?
"You should practice well." Shen Qingtang turned around, but had disappeared from the spot.
Climbing to the top of the mountain is indeed an experience for Lin Su. The degree of use of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy that can be contained in the dantian, and the level of cultivation can all suppress the strength of his body in such an extreme environment. Nothing can be better than this.
He still needed Shen Qingtang to lead him down on the first day, but on the second day he slid to the bottom of the peak by himself when he was exhausted. However, the height he climbed was much higher than the previous day.
Shen Qingtang was originally paying attention to what he did, but when he saw his actions, he knew that he had understood his purpose, did not complain, and was willing to endure hardships. Such a disciple was not a good-for-nothing as others said.
He was lost in thought as he looked at the young man in the water mirror. If he could continue to be so diligent, it would not be a problem for him to achieve the state of spiritual enlightenment in the future. By then, no one would look down on him anymore.
It was just a retraining, and the three months from the third level of Qi Induction to the Foundation Establishment stage seemed to be faster than before. The last time I saw him, I didn't see any sense of emptiness in his spiritual energy.
Ice Spiritual Root cultivation is naturally much faster than others. Wood and Fire Spiritual Roots are also considered to be top-grade spiritual roots. At the age of twenty, even if he doesn't swallow pills, his daily practice is enough to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage. He has both talent and tenacity. Logically, it shouldn't be...
Lin Xin once said that Wanbao Immortal City was not peaceful. There were always struggles for power and profit in every family. There was his sworn brother first, and there were countless disciples from other branches coveting the position of his adopted son. Even the adopted son was under attack from all sides, let alone his biological son. His disciple was not a stupid person, and he might have been hiding his abilities before.
If he was hiding his abilities, it wouldn't be difficult to explain why he wanted to leave Wanbao Fairy City and come here.
At the beginning, Lin Su would slide down every time he was exhausted from climbing to the top of a mountain. Later, he could calculate the spiritual energy and spiritual energy of the spiritual stones, and climb again after accumulating strength.
He climbed a thousand-foot-high peak for more than three months. The top of the peak was not completely empty. There were towering pines and cypresses, but their branches were completely covered with ice and snow, and the original green color could not be seen. Snowflakes fell, and the sky and the earth were covered with a white color.
Lin Su had not used any protective spiritual energy, and his strength was exhausted. When he was exhausted, he held an umbrella over his head. When he looked up, Shen Qingtang was also looking down at him: "Excellent work."
"I have not let my master down." Lin Su said half-kneeling on the ground.
Shen Qingtang squatted down and stretched out his hand: "Get up."
Lin Su reached out and grasped his hand, but his strength suddenly weakened and he fell directly onto his legs. The warmth spread to him. This man looked as cold as snow, but his whole body was warm. Lin Su reached out and hugged his waist and said, "Master, you are so warm."
Shen Qingtang didn't care about his loss of composure, but the moment he was hugged, his whole body stiffened and his heart inexplicably skipped a beat: "Come in."
Lin Su climbed up from the ground with the help of his force. After entering the house and sitting down, Shen Qingtang handed him a cup of warm tea. The white jade cup was filled with amber tea, which made the fingers look particularly white.
