A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu Transmigrates into a Book, the Dao Ancestor of Rein

Chapter 272 Worship
"Please help me, senior."

Liu Yu bowed respectfully.

"Han's standards for accepting disciples have always been very high; not just anyone can join his ranks. So far, Han has only one disciple, who possesses the Nine Spirits Sword Body, one of the three great sword bodies in the cultivation world. Can your aptitude surpass his?"

Han Li said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yu, dressed in pristine white, turned deathly pale. Her face was even whiter than her white robes.

The Nine Spirits Sword Body is one of the top-tier physiques. This physique greatly enhances various flying swords and sword techniques, and upon reaching the Core Formation stage, it can further increase the power of flying swords. The further one progresses, the greater this enhancement becomes.

In terms of cultivation speed, the Nine Spirit Sword Body is second only to the Heavenly Spirit Root and the Different Spirit Root. However, in battles between cultivators of the same level, cultivators with the Heavenly Spirit Root and the Different Spirit Root often find it difficult to gain an advantage, and are often suppressed when facing two opponents at once.

This spirit was born solely for the sword.

Born to fight.

How could her dual spiritual roots compare to that?
"This junior only possesses dual spiritual roots of wood and water, primarily using wood-attribute techniques; naturally, I cannot compare to the Nine Spirit Sword Body..."

So, this is Han Li, the guest elder of Yunmeng Mountain who recently became famous?
Capturing a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Tai Zhen Sect alive is even more incredible than killing him.

This man's fearsome reputation has already reached the Yuling Sect of the Demonic Heavenly Luo Kingdom.

It is an existence that the sect has repeatedly emphasized and ordered should not be provoked.

"You want to become Han's disciple?"

Han Li suddenly asked.

Liu Yu's expression shifted slightly, and she responded without hesitation:

"think."

Which of these Core Formation stage cultivators, with no background or connections, wouldn't want to become disciples of such a powerful figure for protection and guidance?

"I don't hire useless people. Tell me about your strengths and ideals."

Han Li returned to the high platform and sat down.

What he wanted was for this woman to take the initiative to become his disciple, rather than for him to rush to take her in.

What is earned through hard work is often cherished more.

Those that are eagerly offered up are often rejected.

"Senior, junior..."

"... "

Half an hour later, Liu Yu left the cave with a sense of relief and went to the neighboring valley to meditate.

Throughout the journey, I felt relaxed, joyful, and exhilarated.

Recalling her recent experience, she still felt as if she were in a dream, as if it were a distant memory.

A quarter of an hour ago, after recounting her past, she finally gained Han Li's approval and became his disciple.

But she was short of money and couldn't afford anything decent as a gift for becoming an apprentice.

However, her master Han Li did not make things difficult for her. He told her that after her six-winged frost centipede laid eggs, she could use those spirit insect eggs as a small gift to make up for today's apprenticeship gift.

She was very grateful for this.

Just as she was about to leave the cave, six flasks filled to the brim with pills appeared before her. At the same time, three cultivation manuals and jade slips recording cultivation insights were also placed before her. Following this were an ancient treasure—a small bell—that clearly belonged to no ordinary nature, a small flag-like magic weapon, and a small ruler-like ancient treasure. After that, there were two ancient puppets at the early stage of Core Formation.

"Take all these little trinkets."

When that master said this, he threw many treasures in front of her as if they were trash.

At that moment, she felt that her seemingly ordinary master was incredibly handsome.

And her beautiful mistress also bestowed upon her two spiritual materials that could be used as the main ingredients for magical artifacts, allowing her to carve them according to her own needs. She also gave her two pill bottles, saying they were leftovers from years ago and no longer needed, so she gave them to her as well.

"You don't need to be so cautious and fearful anymore, this is your home."

In that instant, she thought her teacher's wife was also very beautiful.

She is not only beautiful on the outside, but also on the inside.

So, she sincerely called out to her master and mistress, and bid farewell to them with all her precious treasures.

It should be noted that these few bottles of pills alone exceeded the total value of all her possessions.

Not to mention the other precious treasures.

"I have never been treated with such kindness before, from childhood to adulthood."

The thought of how she had grown step by step, one step at a time, to reach the Core Formation stage filled her with bitterness.

They then felt somewhat uncomfortable with the sudden appearance of a benefactor.

"Master, Mistress..."

Liu Yu lowered her head, biting her lip, her mind in a daze.

Perhaps what I have experienced this time is not a misfortune, but a blessing?

"In the future, I am not incapable of forming a Nascent Soul!"

Liu Yu, dressed in white, clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with fighting spirit.

So what if there's no family support?
What if there's no favoritism or guidance from a master in a sect?
So what if he was once coveted by many senior brothers and sisters of the Yuling Sect, and even by Nascent Soul stage elders?
Now that she has someone to rely on, she will surely be able to find another path.

She no longer needs to be so cautious and fearful.

...

"My lord, is that six-winged frost centipede really that valuable?"

After Liu Yu left, Yuan Yao asked in confusion.

"This spirit insect possesses the bloodline of a true dragon. If it can gain intelligence, reach maturity, and cultivate some kind of heaven-defying technique, its potential is beyond imagination."

Han Li said simply.

The original trajectory was that more than ten six-winged frost centipedes devoured each other, thus completing the six-winged structure.

In this timeline, however, he was not prepared to give the six-winged creature the opportunity to devour its brothers and sisters and thus complete its initial transformation.

He would send the six-winged frost centipede to one of the Void Spirit Halls in the Small Extreme Palace for cultivation.

There, there is a large amount of ancient cold jade, which can help these spirit insects advance quickly.

If a small Extreme Palace isn't enough, then turn the entire Ice Sea upside down and find enough resources to help a dozen or so Six-Winged Frost Centipedes reach level eight, nine, or even ten. The rest that don't reach level eight will be used as food for the level eight Frost Centipedes to strengthen their bloodlines.

After that, he went to the spirit world and tried to help the little ones develop their intelligence.

If all ten or so six-winged frost centipedes were to cultivate the "Reverse Spirit True Yin Great Method," how many would be able to enter the Integration stage, and how many would be able to enter the Great Ascension stage?
"It seems my husband thinks highly of this woman..."

"Yes, if she focuses on cultivation, she does have a 10% or 20% chance of forming her Nascent Soul."

In the book, Liu Yu's cultivation was delayed by sect affairs, and due to the lack of guidance from the original owner of the body, coupled with his greed for power, he only reached the late stage of Core Formation. This can be considered a case of self-abandonment.

Once the original owner cultivated the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light and attempted to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, his lifespan was exhausted, and he passed away peacefully.

However, this woman's methods of handling political affairs are indeed quite good.

He is a qualified sect leader agent.

Entrusting some power to this woman would at least allow the Falling Cloud Sect to gradually rise to power, just as it did in the original story. If they could help her achieve Nascent Soul stage, gaining several hundred more years of lifespan, the benefits to the sect would undoubtedly be even greater.

This is another aspect of this woman's value. Making the best use of people's talents and resources.

Liu Yu is worth investing in a resource for infant regeneration.

"My lord, with your help, does she only have a 10% or 20% chance of success?"

Yuan Yao was stunned.

"I can't help her the way I help you and Yanli..."

Han Li smiled.

Yuan Yao immediately understood.

Her ability to form an infant is truly a clever trick.

Another half of the Heaven-Mending Pill, another Nine-Bend Spirit Pill, another Spirit-Stabilizing Pill, along with a large amount of high-grade spirit stones, spirit eye items, and the Great Evolution Technique and the Bodhi Pearl, among other aids. There was even help from the Spirit Fusion Technique.

These are things that outsiders simply cannot imagine.

Therefore, after turning her head and meeting Han Li's gaze, she involuntarily leaned into his arms.

Then he thought of Liu Yu: if he didn't become her apprentice, he probably only had a 10% or 20% chance of success. Eighty percent chance was impossible.

After becoming an apprentice, if one can receive her husband's full support...

"Husband, we should have at least a 50% chance of success, right?"

"That's not quite right. For ordinary Core Formation stage cultivators, the most dangerous step in the process of shattering the core and forming the nascent soul is the shattering of the core. But for those with complex minds, the inner demon is the most dangerous obstacle."

Like him.

Back then, if it weren't for the Spirit-Stabilizing Pill and the Mind-Clearing Pill that restored a sliver of clarity to him, helping him withstand the test of his inner demons, he would have been in serious trouble.

There is no second Keqing Shendan.

Liu Yu, like him, is a person with a deep and complex mind.

"If this woman's Dao heart is not firm enough, even if she is given a 99% guarantee, she will probably still fall at the hurdle of inner demons."

Mu Peiling from the original trajectory is an example of this.

I can't get over my inner demons.

I can't sever my attachment to him.

Liu Yu, on the other hand, is very likely unable to resist the allure of power.

Therefore, all he could say was that he was offering Liu Yu another option for the future. If she could be won over, then achieving Nascent Soul stage would be within reach.

Perhaps it would be better to help him manage sect affairs after he has formed his Nascent Soul?
"Liu Yu, Liu Yu, will you enjoy the taste of power at the Core Formation stage and then succumb to temptation, or will you have a firm Dao heart, defy fate, and remain uncorrupted by power?"

Han Li muttered to himself.

This also has, to some extent, the intention of paving the way for their descendants.

Liu Yu is a smart person.

If one can achieve the Nascent Soul stage, one will inevitably consider issues from the perspective and interests of one's descendants.

This is also a factor to consider when nurturing Liu Yu.

"Husband, you are so generous to her. The power of those treasures is enough even for those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage."

"For ordinary cultivators, the Three Treasures are indeed good treasures, but for you and me, what are those little things? A magic weapon that can only unleash 70% of its power, no matter how much it is strengthened, has already limited its upper limit. Even your senior sister looks down on it."

The silver bell, one of the most frequently used ancient treasures by the top person below the Nascent Soul stage in the Chaotic Star Sea, possesses the ability to immobilize a target and is considered a top-quality ancient treasure. It's barely sufficient even for someone at the early Nascent Soul stage. He didn't think much of it, nor did Yuan Yao Yanli, who was adorned with precious treasures, and Gan Rushuang, who possessed multiple exquisite ancient treasures and other valuable items, either.

However, Xiao Zhong was undoubtedly a great treasure to Liu Yu, who was in the Core Formation stage.

If you encounter a master of the same level in the Core Formation stage, you can use this treasure to wreak havoc.

The small flag was also a magical artifact obtained from Wen Tianren.

Its main function is to conjure a cloud of mist, hundreds of feet in size, to envelop oneself, making it difficult for enemies to detect oneself within the mist using their divine sense. In addition, the mist can carry the user away quickly, making the escape technique far faster than ordinary Core Formation stage escape techniques.

The Small Ruler Ancient Treasure is one of the many exquisite ancient treasures obtained by the Void Heaven Palace. It contains the spirit of an ancient spirit bird as its artifact spirit, thus giving the treasure the ability to conjure a bluebird for combat. It is sufficient even for those in the early Nascent Soul stage.

Liu Yu obtained three treasures and two Core Formation stage puppet guards. As long as he mastered the first two levels of the Great Evolution Technique, which did not present any major bottlenecks, and became proficient in controlling those treasures, he would definitely be a formidable opponent among Core Formation stage cultivators.

I wouldn't dare say I can run rampant in the Core Formation stage, but I can certainly protect myself.

"As Han's disciple, I can't let her suffer any grievances when I'm out and about in the future."

Han Li chuckled.

This was undoubtedly a combination of kindness and severity in his actions.

A big stick plus two sweet dates—that's the way to manage subordinates.

I wasn't very good at it before.

I'm learning now.

...

Liu Yu changed her name to Liu Mei and followed Han Li.

The two traveled together to the far west.

On the outskirts of the Hurricane Desert, at a specially marked location, the two sank two hundred feet underground and entered a man-made cave.

"The Spirit-Binding Array and the Five Elements Reversal Array... Miss Xin is quite cautious..."

Han Li's cultivated Mingqing Spiritual Eyes flashed with blue light, instantly revealing the traces of the array formations here. Under the watchful eyes of Liu Mei, who was initially confused and then astonished, he deciphered two array formations and saw a white jade platform inside.

"Teleportation array?"

Liu Mei let out a soft cry.

"Let's go."

Han Li stepped onto the teleportation platform.

Then, spirit stones were inserted, activating the medium-to-long-distance teleportation array here.

Xin Ruyin and Xiaomei did not do nothing for more than ten years.

The two disappeared without a trace, and what they did was search for suitable locations throughout the southern region to set up interconnected teleportation arrays. During this time, Yan Xuanhao of the Yan family accompanied them to prevent the still unruly dragon roar energy within Xin Ruyin from having a backlash.

Hermaphroditic, switching between male and female, but still needs to enter the Nascent Soul stage to completely resolve the Dragon Roar Qi and make it his own.

With the Yin energy of the Nascent Soul, one can harmonize the Yin and Yang within the body and refine the Dragon Roar Qi.

The teleportation light shone, and the two were quickly teleported millions of miles away.

After several more teleportations, they finally avoided the hurricane-ravaged desert that stretched for millions of miles, saving them more than two years of hiking time.

Beside her, Liu Mei, who had personally experienced the events, reached a new level of admiration for Han Li.

This adds a touch of hope for the future.

"It turns out that the person I've been following is even more terrifying than I imagined!"

Liu Mei's body trembled slightly, and a blush of excitement appeared on her pretty face.
