“I’ll say it again, don’t try to imitate me.” Yun Zhi repeatedly warned, worried that Lu Yang might get the wrong idea and try to compete with her.
“Absolutely, absolutely won’t imitate!” Lu Yang guaranteed.
“Alright, I’m going to cultivate now, you continue to choose your Golden Elixir method.”
“Yes.”
Having learned about the specific process of the senior sister’s Golden Elixir, Lu Yang immediately discarded the idea of imitation, not leaving a trace of it behind.
This method of forming the Golden Elixir was too outrageous. He was just an ordinary sword spiritual root, nothing special, and didn’t have the talent of the senior sister.
The old nursery rhyme was “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are”, should it now be changed to “Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what Golden Elixir you are”?
Reasonable, and it rolls off the tongue.
With one problem solved, another one surfaced – just how old was the senior sister?
Exactly how many hundreds of years old was she?
Lu Yang was itching to find out the truth.
Lu Yang remembered that the first round of the sect selection was conducted by Brother Dai Bufan. With just a touch, Brother Dai could tell someone’s spiritual root and age: “Fairy, do you have any spells that can see through someone’s age?”
“Yes.”
Lu Yang just asked casually, he didn’t expect there really was one?
Truly worthy of being a fairy.
“Hehe, my spell is extraordinary, it can ignore the cultivation level of the other party and see their age.”
“That’s amazing?!”
“Of course, you should know who I am!”
This was a minor spell, or rather a small trick, easy to learn. After reciting the ancient language and practicing twice, Lu Yang learned it.
Lu Yang activated the ancient spell, feeling a sense of openness in front of him, as if he had understood something.
“Let’s try it on myself first.”
Lu Yang spread out his hands and saw a number appear in front of him – sixteen years old.
Correct, he was only sixteen years old now.
“Let’s look at the fairy.” Lu Yang used the ancient spell to look at the self-satisfied immortal fairy, and a number also appeared in front of him – sixteen years old.
“Huh?”
Although the immortal fairy always boasted that she was a genius beauty, who died young and was only sixteen years old this year.
Even if Lu Yang thought with his butt, he knew this was nonsense.
Becoming an immortal at sixteen, one epoch is one year, right?
Lu Yang, with a puzzled heart, looked at a passing senior brother, also showing sixteen years old!
“…Fairy, is there something wrong with your spell? Why do I see everyone as sixteen years old?” Considering his own black history, Lu Yang first suspected that he had practiced incorrectly.
The immortal fairy confidently said: “You don’t worry about whether the age you see is right or not, just say whether you can ignore the cultivation level and see the age!”
“…”
The immortal fairy continued: “In ancient times, everyone liked to rank by age, which is not good. Is it right for the older ones to say it’s right, and wrong for the younger ones to say it’s wrong?”
“In order to reverse this situation, I specifically created this spell that sees everyone as sixteen years old. Unfortunately, my concept was too advanced at the time and people couldn’t accept it.”
“Your concept is still very advanced now.”
How to calculate the senior sister’s age?
The first method Lu Yang thought of was to see which batch of disciples she was.
The Seek Tao Sect, or rather the five major immortal sects, had a regular pattern of recruiting disciples, once every three years, without interruption.
He quickly denied this method.
The Seek Tao Sect dared to recruit both Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. It seemed that the threshold was low, but in fact, it was extremely high. The number of disciples recruited in Lu Yang’s batch was considered a lot.
Some people who came to participate in the selection had the right spiritual roots, but their willpower did not meet the standard, so they could not enter the Seek Tao Sect. This resulted in the Seek Tao Sect sometimes not being able to recruit anyone at all.
In this way, Lu Yang could not calculate the senior sister’s age by calculating which batch of disciples she was.
“Then go ask Brother Dai Bufan? Brother Dai and the senior sister are from the same batch, he must know the senior sister’s age!”
Lu Yang said and did it, but because of the third round of the sect test, he always felt guilty when facing Brother Dai Bufan alone.
Find a helper.
“Go to Brother Dai to ask about the senior sister’s age?” Hearing Lu Yang’s plan, Meng Jingzhou showed an eager expression.
“Won’t the senior sister find out?”
“No, when I left, the senior sister was cultivating and didn’t have time to pay attention to us here.”
“What are you waiting for, let’s go.” Meng Jingzhou urged Lu Yang to hurry up.
…
“You want to ask about the senior sister’s age?” Dai Bufan looked at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou with a strange expression.
“You two are quite bold, daring to ask such secrets, be careful not to bring trouble upon yourselves!” Brother Dai Bufan kindly warned the two, this kind of thing was a top secret in the Seek Tao Sect, the level of confidentiality was even higher than the information on the Dao fruit, and it was not to be disclosed to others.
“Do you know what happened to the last disciple who asked this question?”
“It’s just a casual question.” Meng Jingzhou put on a business smile, which looked very fake.
“Yes, yes, we both just care about the senior sister, we feel that she works day and night for this sect, very hard, we need to know her age to give her a suitable gift.” Lu Yang had a smile on his face that was identical to Meng Jingzhou’s.
Dai Bufan rolled his eyes, it would be a ghost if he believed these two.
This was a taboo matter, absolutely not to be said.
“Aren’t you afraid that the senior sister will find out about this?”
Meng Jingzhou grinned: “The senior sister is cultivating and has no time to pay attention to us here. As long as you, Brother Dai, don’t say anything, the senior sister will never know about this!”
Dai Bufan shook his head gently: “The senior sister has the ability to know everything, how could she not know about this? I advise you, don’t ask anymore, this question is very dangerous.”
“There won’t be any danger.” Meng Jingzhou felt that this matter was not a big deal.
Hearing this, Dai Bufan said with a smile that was not quite a smile: “Is that so? In that case, why don’t you turn around and ask the person in question directly?”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
Both of them had a bad premonition, feeling the temperature around them dropping rapidly, as if they were about to be frozen into ice sculptures.
The two men stiffly turned their heads, only to see the senior sister standing behind them, standing tall and elegant, her face expressionless as she looked at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, her emotions unreadable.
Dai Bufan sighed, “See, I told you guys not to ask that question. It’s just asking for trouble.”
From the moment the two found him, the senior sister had been quietly standing behind them. Despite Dai Bufan’s frantic hints, these two were hell-bent on courting disaster, and he couldn’t stop them.
Perhaps they deserved this calamity.
The senior sister spoke softly, “Junior Brother Lu.”
Lu Yang jumped in fright and quickly responded, “Present!”
“Junior Brother Meng.”
“Present!”
“Do you two find cultivation boring, and in your spare time, you concern yourselves with such trivial matters?”
The senior sister’s voice was unusually gentle, as if she was concerned about Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou’s cultivation progress.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou broke out in cold sweat, soaking their clothes. They were trembling, not knowing what to say.
First time getting a fever, feeling weak all over, very uncomfortable, only one update today.
